Our mission is to foster a positive environment where players of all levels can enjoy the sport, develop their skills, and embrace teamwork. By championing sportsmanship and healthy competition, we aim to inspire a lifelong love for netball and an active lifestyle.
It’s incredible to see how the Sutherland Shire Netball Association has grown since its inception in 1960. Starting as the Sutherland Shire Girls Basketball Association and evolving into a hub with 29 sealed courts at Bellingara Road, 9 of which were upgraded in 2020, plus an indoor stadium & training rooms, office space, speaks volumes about its commitment to the sport. The addition of 12 more courts at The Ridge Sports Complex, [and the use of Seymour Courts] for younger teams highlight a thriving community that’s deeply invested in nurturing talent from a young age.
What’s particularly striking is how the association has managed to cater to both competitive play and grassroots development. Hosting both Winter and Summer competitions, including walking netball, mixed netball, & 8–9s 5–9 year Friday night netball as well as all abilities netball, along with club training sessions across multiple venues, shows a dynamic approach to keeping players engaged year round. It’s not just about the game; it’s about fostering a sense of belonging and provided consistent opportunities for players to refine their skills.
