It’s that time of year when netball fanatics dust off their shoes and get ready to hit the courts in the largest participation sport for women in Queensland. This includes the many enthusiastic players waiting to kick off the season in our region with Whitsunday Netball Association.
Incorporated in 1988, the Whitsunday Netball Association is one of our premier sports clubs, providing not only an introduction to the game of netball through its National NetSetGo program but also running full fixture competitions for Juniors, Senior Ladies and Senior Mixed.
Junior club netball caters for children aged 5 to 16. There are opportunities to accommodate all levels of skill and experience, from just starting out to dreaming of being the next Australian Diamond. Whitsunday Netball promote fitness, friendship and fun for all members as well as encourage and guide those keen players to explore representative and development pathways.
Every year their junior teams travel to regional carnivals across Central and North Queensland including Townsville, Bowen, Sarina, Burdekin, Mackay and Charters Towers.
The ever-growing senior membership hosts a social ladies competition and mixed competition, as well as offering participation in senior carnivals.
“It’s a great community sport catering to everyone with our oldest member playing in her 60s!” Marteaka Hoffmann, Secretary of Whitsunday Netball said.
“From people who’ve never played to people who’ve played forever - it’s got something for everyone.”
The 2022 junior season kicks of on Tuesday 8th February from 4.30pm for 5 to 10 year olds and Wednesday 9th February from 4:30pm for 11 to 16 years.
