Sydney Sandpipers

Between 1997 and 2002, Avellino made 71 senior appearances for Sydney Sandpipers in the Commonwealth Bank Trophy league. She made more appearances for Sandpipers than any other player. After spending the 1999 season with Melbourne Phoenix, Avellino returned to Sandpipers in 2000 and helped them achieve their best performance in the league . They finished third in the regular season, above their neighbours, Sydney Swifts. In 2001 and 2002, together with Joanne Morgan, Avellino co-captained Sandpipers. [1][13][14][15][12][16][17][18] Ahead of the 2003 season, Avellino was dropped from the Sandpipers squad due to an Osteitis pubis injury.[19]

Adelaide Thunderbirds

After been let go by Sydney Sandpipers, Avellino was signed by Adelaide Thunderbirds. However, the move proved controversial. Avellino subsequently missed most of the 2003 season after Netball Australia declared she could not play for Thunderbirds because she was not registered as a resident of South Australia in time. The case went all the way to the Supreme Court of South Australia which ruled in Avellino's favour.[20] [21][22][23][24][25][26][27]
