TBNC recovery fund

Sadly, the Tailem Bend Netball Club have been dealt a cruel blow. We have fallen victim to a sophisticated online email scam, resulting in the loss of $153,780 which was intended to pay our local contractors for work undertaken on our newly laid netball courts.

After large, unrepairable cracks continued to appear in our courts over the past few years, laying new courts was paramount in order to provide a safe and suitable facility to our club and community.

The excitement of our first nights training on our new courts was over-shadowed by the news that our money had not reached the destination and was gone.

With the situation yet to be resolved, we are left with the daunting task of trying to recoup the large sum of money we are still owing.

We are working tirelessly on as many fundraising initiatives as we can manage however, we are a long way from reducing our debt. We are thankful for the patience of our local contractors Rivercity Excavations, Kowald Industries and Mike Bristow Electrical but we understand the effect this is having on their businesses as they continue to await payment.
