The highly anticipated Lismore Masters Games will be making a grand return from 22 to 24 September this year. This follows a four-year hiatus due to the unfortunate impact of COVID-19 and the natural disaster in 2022.
Registrations for the games are steadily flowing in, with an impressive 34 teams already registered to participate. Interested participants are encouraged to secure their spot before the early bird registrations close on 30 June. The return of the event has created a buzz throughout the community. This year’s Lismore Masters Games Netball Legend, Tammy Yates-Allen, said she is looking forward to competing and catching up with friends. Reflecting on her own journey in netball, Tammy said, "I moved to Lismore when I was 12, and it didn't take long before I became involved in local netball. Coaching at the age of 13 and umpiring at 14, I have now dedicated over 30 years to the local netball community." "The games have always been a highly anticipated event on Lismore's sporting calendar. They provide an opportunity for individuals who may not have the time to commit to a full season of sport. After a challenging few years, this event offers a great opportunity to come together, enjoy ourselves and embrace the joy of friendly competition." Tammy strongly encourages those thinking about signing up to register, saying, "If you are considering registering, you would be silly not to. The social events and camaraderie the games deliver is not to be missed.” The Lismore Masters Games cater to a wide range of sports and skill levels, ensuring that everyone can participate and enjoy the event.
