This September, Netball Australia will pilot a 3-day 23/U First Nations Tournament in Melbourne, where all states and territories will take part.

Netball Victoria is extremely excited for this pilot to commence and to offer this opportunity for First Nations netballers, including players, coaches and umpires in Victoria.

Netball Victoria commits to fostering a safe & inclusive environment where First Nations women and girls are respected and valued throughout the tournament and within the netball community.

Congratulations to the athletes who have been selected in the inaugural Victorian First Nations team.
