The NSW Swifts

FAQs

What is a Swift?

The swifts are birds superficially similar to swallows but are actually not closely related to those passerine species at all; swifts are in the separate order Apodiformes, which they formerly shared with the hummingbirds. The treeswifts are closely related to the true swifts, but form a separate family, the Hemiprocnidae.

Nevermind, so, why will you win?

“Netball NSW has undertaken a series of brand and marketing exercises in order to create a team for New South Wales that will propel us to the forefront of this new competition” and we have more blondes than the Queensland team.

And why might you lose?

The majority of voters on our website say we’ll only make the top four.

And what should I wear to the game? Because I was going to wear my State of Origin jersey to show up those stupid Queenslanders but you guys are playing in red, not blue, so it confused me.

We actually have a webpage addressing that very question…but it’s empty at the moment. Just come dressed as a cockroach.

The Swift's first match is against the Southern Steel on Monday April 7 in Sydney.
