Gosh – I jumped the gun when I said this was an excellent offer. 11% rise to the minimum wage is not how NA presented it in their release, or I misread it.
It is correct that netball is not a wealthy sport but people need to keep in mind these athletes will need a career and a job when they are no longer playing. The salaries they are on now is not enough to be setting them up for later down the track so they need every opportunity they can to get ahead in the now. If revenue sharing is something that will help that in the now, then I’m all for it.
