Season 24/25 will get off to a great start thanks to last week's End of Season Fundraiser....(new goal posts already on the way!)

This weekend saw the Sirens return to the Algarve for our first competion in the international Algarve 7s.  A 2-day sports festival with over 70 international sports teams and more than 2000 athletes participating in Rugby, Netball, Field Hockey and Golf, this was always going to be our most challenging tournament to date.

The Silver Coast Sirens took not one, but TWO teams to the Algarve this weekend to compete in the second Mermaid Trophy, featuring running and walking netball competitions.

The Silver Coast Sirens start the year on a high by announcing a sponsorship deal with local firm LUMATEK.

Phew! 2023 has been a ride and a half!! 

Toys, games and sweet treats are among the gifts being delivered to the children living at Santa Casa de Misericórdia in Caldas da Rainha this week.

We're thrilled to reveal our new logo.....  Of course we needed to keep our lovely mermaid and our netball, but she needed a bit of a makeover to ensure we could reproduce her more easily in print, for things like kit and publicity.

The Silver Coast Sirens have appointed their first ever committee members.  Having officials in place means that we can share the work load to attract more players and more teams to play netball in Portugal.  Read on for a taste of what's to come.....

It's taken nearly 6 years to get a tournament fixture....but what a weekend!!  2 Sirens teams plus umpires, a first aider and social supporters travelled to the Algarve for a sun-soaked weekend of netball and "team time".  

Central Portugal's first netball team reached an important milestone today....celebrating 5 years since the formation of the Silver Coast Sirens.

We've come a long way since our first game in 2018!  That took place at the outdoor ground at Rafael Bordallo Pinheiro school in Caldas da Rainha, where we were playing on various sports lines!!  Original Sirens will recall it was difficult to fit around the school timetable, so a more permanent home was needed.... 

As World Cup fever grabs netball fans around the globe, teams in Portugal are joining forces to establish netball here,  encouraging more women to take up sport.

More than 60 players turned up at Caldas Rugby Club to take part in a fund raising rounders tournament hosted by the Silver Coast Sirens netball team.  Brush up on your Portuguese and read the report in the Gazeta das Caldas here: Game raised funds for Bombeiros 

Just ahead of our Charity rounders match to raise funds and supplies for the bombeiros in Caldas da Rainha and Obidos,we chat with Carl at the Good Morning Portugal podcast.
