Return to play - latest update
Metropolitan Melbourne, we finally have the green light for community netball! At 11:59pm on Tuesday 27 October Metropolitan Melbourne will move to Step Three. This will include the return of outdoor junior netball competitions and programs and non-contact training for adults at outdoor venues.
The 25km limit will remain until 8 November which means some members will still be limited by the travel restrictions.
For regional Victoria, people 18 years and younger can continue to participate in netball competitions and programs. Adults continue with non-contact training at outdoor venues. Indoor venues may open for non-contact sport only, for people aged 18 years and under.
Check our updated resources for further information.

Child Safety in Netball
Associations/Leagues and Clubs have a responsibility to keeping your children safe by implementing the Child Safe Standards. In the Our Safety Counts report it was stated “Adults paying attention when a child or young person raised a concern or worry was the most influential characteristic in determining how safe children felt within an organisation”. Netball Victoria have created some Child Safe posters for associations and clubs, so you may begin to see these advertised on socials, in newsletters and displayed around the facilities. It is a great opportunity to have a conversation with your children to help spread the message and encourage them to speak up if they do have any concerns.
