What a Program!

“I’m a PE teacher and I think you do a great job. You connect with the kids really well. I only teach one year level, but this groups is so mixed, you do a really good job.”

Program Coordinator East Gippsland – Yvonne Porter

As the Program Coordinator for East Gippsland, I oversee all of the amazing programs and projects we are a part of within East Gippsland. I have previously worked for Netball Victoria & Victoria University across participation, coach development, sociological research and wrote a thesis on building and maintaining culture in sporting teams.

When I’m not travelling around beautiful East Gippsland spreading the joy and connection that comes with sport and physical activity, you can find me at the netball courts- either at Lakes Entrance or in Melbourne in the Victorian Netball League. I am one of 52 netball coaches in Victoria with an Advanced accreditation and one of 13 based regionally.

These Gippy Girls Can!
The Gippy Girls Masters Netball is a group of women who don\’t let their age be a barrier to playing the game they love. Whether it is a half-court game or walking style of Netball, the group focuses on creating an environment that welcomes anyone new or returning to the sport, no matter what ability. The group is continually growing, with friendships blossoming over a cuppa coffee after a session.

In October 2021, a few members of this group will be heading over to Perth to participate in The Master\’s Games!
