Netball Victoria are inviting umpire coaches to apply for a role in the 2027 Talent Academy Umpire Program. 

The Talent Academy Umpire Program provides professional development opportunities for talent identified umpires across the six Netball Victoria regions, with the aim of increasing the opportunity for umpires to progress to the next level of accreditation. Umpire Coaches will support the umpires in the program as well as receive training and mentoring to further develop their own umpire coaching skills. Applications close 31 August.

Netball Victoria would appreciate it if all clubs could take a few moments to review and update their Club contact details in Netball Connect.  

We've recently noticed a number of emails bouncing back as some club contact details are out of date. Netball Victoria regularly send updates and announcements, so it's important your club doesn't miss these communications. 

Where possible, we encourage clubs to use a club email address rather than a personal email address. This helps ensure communications continue to be received, even when committee members or club officials change. Please click the link to review the process of updating Club contact information.

It would also be a good time to review who has access to your Club profile and to review and update key personnel information.
