The girls are Phoebe Matthews, Isabella Pollard, Elise Mullins, Tess Mae McKenzie, Felicite Gray, Emily Ahearn, Becky Ford and Kaelah and Darci Cave.

Darci, who plays in the U15s representative team, got into netball from her sister and loves the sport.

"My favourite thing about netball is getting to play with the girls in my teams, who are a really friendly and kind group of girls," Darci said.

"My goals for the future are to complete the training for umpiring and to continue my rep journey next year and beyond."

Kaelah said she loves the team players, making new friends and the Goulburn netball family.

She wants to go into coaching in the future.

"I would like to get into coaching since this is my second last year for cadets, and love the game, so I want to play or be involved as long as possible."

Elise Mullins, who also plays for the U15s, has loved the sport her whole life.

"Ever since I was little, I have been watching my sister play and I thought it could be me on the court, one day," Elise said.

"It's one of the best ways to challenge myself and socialise with my friends and meet new people."

She has her eyes set on becoming a national player.

"Until then, I want to keep playing with my friends and enjoy their company."

Another recipient is Becky Ford who started playing netball at four and a half years of age when her older sisters were playing.

"I just wanted to join in," Becky said.

"I love netball because I get to be a part of a team and make new friends."

For most of the girls, the funds will go towards their representative costs and their future endeavours with netball.
