How your membership benefits you and the game you love!

Netball connects communities

One of the key benefits of your Netball Victoria Membership is you support our mission in enriching Victorian communities through netball, from grassroots to the elite. Netball holds a special place in our hearts and there is no doubt that netball contributes in many ways to the health and social wellbeing of the people who participate in it.

Being part of a team as players, coaches, umpires or administrators has given the opportunity to a great number of people to learn skills not only in netball, but life values nurtured by the special people in our netball community.

Officials excelling in their field

Your support helps us promote and provide a clear pathway for coaches, officials, umpires and volunteers to help reach their potential through easily accessible courses and workshops designed for each level of the accreditation  structure.  This training means thousands of players across Victoria can continue to play and enjoy the game we love.

In 2019 there were over sixteen hundred people who completed online learning to develop their coaching skills, fifty courses and workshops were delivered by Netball Victoria and three hundred and eighty members obtained an accredited coaching qualification. The future of Umpiring continued to thrive with over three thousand members accessing online learning courses, forty five workshops were delivered by Netball Victoria and over five hundred and fifty umpiring badges were awarded.
