We can't wait to see our NSW Swifts Family back at Ken Rosewall Arena to cheer on the Premiers against the Collingwood Magpies on Saturday.
And it's Heritage Round! Not only are we donning our annual yellow Hertiage Dress, this year we are going to invite some of the youngest members of our netball community on court to acknowledge our Century of Swifts, with all 102 players who represented the Club over the Yellow and Red eras acknowledged. You don't want to miss it!
We also have some legends of the Club coming along to the game. Who was your favourite Swift back in the 1990s and 2000s?
