The St Cecilia’s Netball Club provides a fun and supportive environment for members to play netball. It offers players an opportunity to learn new skills, develop their fitness and be part of a team.
We are affiliated with the Waverley District Netball Association (WDNA) www.wdna.com.au. Teams compete on Saturdays at the outdoor netball courts situated at the corner of Cassinia Avenue and Farmer Street, Ashwood.
There is a Winter season (Late February to June) and a Spring season (July to December) with breaks for term and public holidays.
Players do not need to be affiliated with St Cecilia’s School or Parish. The club currently has members from a variety of schools and communities.
Teams start at Grade 3 level (U9), where games are played without the pressure of ladders and finals. Junior Players in grade 4-5 play in U11 in graded sections with ladders but no finals. Players in Year 6 up play in skills based graded sections from Juniors through to Open level, with finals at the end of each season.
The Club also offers the NetSetGO program for Grade 1, 2 and 3 aspiring netballers to learn about the game and develop their skills.
We also have many players playing at a more competitive level in Representative Teams.
