Had solved this one a while ago but hadn't been out this way to get it. Was coming home from Hawks Nest and decided to make the detour to get the cache. Made a quick find at GZ which was helpful. Coming on a Sunday arvo out of sport season was also a good idea. TFTC!!! #2395

Day 1 of my 2.5 weeks road trip up to Brisbane and back to Blue Mountains. A leisurely morning sleeping in & packing up. Left midday. Stopped here supposedly for a rest break mid afternoon.A quick answer got my final coordinates. Nice to see a different outer hold. Thanks Big Matt and Shell for my 2112 geocache find.
 
Quick drive by on our way to butchers while no sport on.Sent the geokids into where I thought it would be and they came back empty-handed. They took phone and started doing a lap of the area, and we ended up back at the original point. A quick word from mum, a little more specific on where to look, and cache was in hand.TFTC.

Caching around Raymond Terrace this morning gave us the opportunity to pick up this presolved puzzle. Even though we are both short a big stretch allowed us to grab the cache and add our names to the logbook.Thanks Big Matt and Shell for the Mystery placement.

En route to Sydney for a few days. We set out bright and early this morning to allow plenty of time to tackle all of the caches we had on our itinerary for today. Our journey down was rather smooth sailing with the worst of the rain staying away and we managed to successfully locate all but one of the caches we attempted.Solved this shortly after it came out, it took quite a few attempts even with some intense googling and reading of detailed rulebooks. Managed to grab a parking just a few metres of GZ, had seen previous logs mention the height of the hide but it was well within reach for us, found the matryoshka-like way to the logbook a little amusing SmileThanks for the cache

After asking my netball daughter for help my lawn bowling son inlaw came up with the answer so I headed out today and soon had the cache in hand. Thanks Big Matt and Shell for the lesson in Basketball and the cache.

Found at 5:10 PM GAFF1 at a distance of 8 metres which messed up my first instinct as to where the cache was going to be hidden Sad.On our way back to our camp at Camp'n'Stay on Bucketts Way after doing a few caches around Seaham and we were passing by this cache which I had worked out a fee weeks ago - know nothing much about net ball, but it was interesting to learn a bit about the infringements!When the cache was eventually found we were impressed with the Babushka doll thing going on here RazzThanks to Big Matt and Shell

Im awful at sports knowledge but I was sitting down watching TV last night and I had nothing but time and patience and what do you know. I got a solve. Came by today on my Newcastle trip to clear up some Raymond Terrace caches before heading into town to work on some CBD caches. TFTC

It took a few goes at solving the puzzle, but like many team sports, we got there in the end.On my way home from visiting in-laws at Maitland, I detoured to GZ. After spotting the cache, I knew I couldn't reach it, so back to the car for my anti-terrorist device (aka milk crate). Easy to reach now. And three containers in one! It will be well protected.Signed and replaced. Found with GeodogZelda TFTC

Today I also began the challenge cache from across the ditch, in New Zealand, ‘One thousand points of Light Challenge’. Our family will be heading there next week so decided to start this challenge today. 24 out of 1 000 points.
Thanks for the puzzle

I think we had this solved within the hour when it was published, with some educated guesses, then straight brute forcing.
We were driving back home from Diamond Head today, and diverted in to grab this, and give the car a blast off at the carwash. I completely missed it, then Samuel had a proper look and spotted it... whoops!
Cool container.... these are always good to find...
TFTC!

TFTC and the puzzle. Out geocaching with Goldberry and 2 Pods today. I’m not a netballer but I do know some rules from supervising school netball teams. I prefer to dribble playing basketball and running all over the court. Having a great day out in the sun.
 
09-Jul-23
I thought I knew a little about this sport, but needed some further instruction before solving the puzzle. In the area today, I parked close to GZ with only 1 freezing netballer practicing in the distance and walked over to retrieve the cache, which was logged in the car. Thanks for the instruction and excellent cache placement, we liked it.

The answer took a few guesses as although I know the rule I didn’t know the terminology.

Today in the first day of our road trip I made a quick stop while my wife shopped.

Met up with more finders in the way out.

It's day 1 of our annual pilgrimage north to visit our family on the sunshine coast. With Camden Haven being our overnight destination, Raymond Terrace seemed like a good half way point for lunch and so I had a quick scan of the map to see if there might be any new caches to grab since we were here last.

How lucky are we - this one has only been added a few days ago! It's brought back some great memories too as netball was a huge part of my childhood. I spent nearly every Saturday, from what felt like the crack of dawn until dusk at our local netball courts. Aside from playing myself, Mum was the local umpire convener and growing up she was the netball guru in my young eyes. Personally, I never had the confidence to persist with umpiring. One game and I was done. Luckily I remembered enough to solve this!

At GZ I was a little worried knowing how tall the CO is. Couldn't quite get there myself so gave GGCoconut a boost and it was in our hands. Felt a little bit like a Russian doll cache!

Thanks very much for the cache and for bringing us here today
