Junior netballers on the hunt for state title glory An article from the Newcastle Herald BY NEIL GOFFET THOUSANDS of junior players will invade the Hunter this weekend when Maitland, Newcastle and Charlestown host the 2008 Netball NSW State Age Championships. More than 3600 players, comprising 305 teams from 86 netball associations in NSW, will create what is recognised as one of the largest single sporting events in the southern hemisphere. Held every year on the first weekend of the winter school holidays, the state age championships have four age groups 12, 13, 14 and 15 years and there are three divisions in each group. The most popular age group is division three of the 13 years, where 30 teams will fight for the state title. The growing number of players has forced officials to spread the tournament over three associations this year. Maitland will host the championship divisions, Newcastle will be home to the division two teams and the division three state championships will be decided at Charlestown courts.
