JUNIOR COMPETITION - Saturday
Our Saturday Junior Competition is the highlight of our Junior program and easily our most popular season.
We run the competition in line with the local Club fixture during the Winter Season (April - September).
Games are played outdoors between the hours of 8am and 12noon.
We have a number of local Netball Clubs, School entities and Non-Club-Affiliated teams entering this competition, which caters for junior age groups and mixed skill levels.
We recommend new players attend training and trial days with their preferred Participating Club to foster a sense of Club comradery and skill development.
Non-Club-Affiliated teams are always welcome, as are singular players. Our Association will find a team for singular players to join!
If you are a Participating Club representative looking to Register your team/s, head straight to our Junior Team Registration Form.
