Where an athlete fails to attend one or all physical trials and that athlete believes that exceptional circumstances prevented them from attending part or all of the selection, a written application may be made to NACT within 24 hours of the commencement of selection for an exemption. The reason(s) for non-attendance must be disclosed and include, where appropriate, relevant documentary evidence. The GMOS will determine whether the athlete will be permitted to trial.
Athlete selections will be conducted in accordance with the Netball ACT Pathways Selection Policy. All athletes and parents are encouraged to be familiar with this policy when nominating.
