Nothing casual about being a casual! #RMIT says giving casuals paid sick leave and equal super is an anomaly in the sector, but it’s not. Our #NTEU USyd comrades won paid sick leave for casuals! #RMITStrike #UnionStrong ✊💪🪧

Great stuff from @SportHistorian, always shining a light on the history of netball (or is it basket ball)!

Netball in Australia has come a long way from school girls in heavy full-length skirts to the Australian Diamonds winning their 12th World Cup. @SportHistorian shares the history of netball in Australia and how it was researched: bit.ly/3sc3CFP

Great presentation by @bess_sch on the archetypal 🇦🇺 netballer which limits social change - critically under represented research agenda - fantastic to see academic research devoted to netball!! @iwss2023 @RMIT

On August 6, the Australian Diamonds won the Netball World Cup for the 12th time. But as @kaseysymons (@Swinburne) + @bess_sch (@RMIT) write, they received a fraction of the coverage the Matildas are getting. Why is this the case? theconversation.com/australi…

Wonderful to see Bess Schnioffsky interviewed about her PhD research on netball, femininities and Whiteness for this article! I’ve never worn a netball dress I didn’t love but I’m glad the sport is changing its uniform | Erin Delahunty tinyurl.com/yn8mxurt

Very exciting to have my research out in the world! Thanks to fellow netballer @della79 for including my thoughts in this amazing piece on the netball dress 🥰 theguardian.com/lifeandstyle…

I’ve never worn a netball dress I didn’t love but I’m glad the sport is changing its uniform | Erin...

For many players, the netball dress is a ‘favourite outfit ever’. But until now the sport’s feminine uniforms have excluded some while annoying many more
