We’re bringing the energy to the Lightning Strike Zone this weekend and you’re invited.

Whether you're a lifelong fan or bringing the kids along for their first taste of netball, this is your chance to connect with the team and be part of something special.

Plus, while you're there, have a chat with the IFYS team about how you can make a difference in a young person’s life through foster care.

Don’t miss it, come say hi, grab your cards and feel the Lightning spirit

Don’t just watch the game, be part of something bigger

Visit the Lightning Strike Zone, collect your player postcard and discover how you can support children and young people in our community through foster care.

It starts with a conversation. It starts with you.

Foster carers help maintain relationships between children and their families. Many children are reunited with their families when it’s safe, and carers play a key role in this process.

Yes, you can rent or own your home. Every applicant’s household is checked to ensure it’s safe for children. Safe homes come in all forms.

15/09/2025

Absolutely! If you’ve been a carer before and are ready to welcome children again, we’d love to hear from you. Your experience is invaluable.

IFYS has been providing foster care services to children and young people, since 1992. Find out how you can help.
