The top 100 of Victoria’s best netballers in the 17/U and 19/U age groups have been identified by Netball Victoria state team selectors, in preparation for the 2026 National Netball Championships.
The squads will undertake trials over coming weeks, with the athletes narrowed down to teams of 12 that will compete at the 2026 National Netball Championships next year. The Victorian state teams will be announced in December.
Earlier this month, Adrian Ballantyne and Belinda Lees were announced as 19/U and 17/U Victorian state team coaches, with Kath Knott (19/U) and Monique Lenehan-Moustafa (17/U) as their assistants.
Athletes who competed at the 2025 National Netball Championships and are remaining in their age group have automatically progressed through to the top 25 Elevate program for their age group. Those moving up to the 19/U age group have been automatically selected in the top 50 (denoted with a *).
