It was an honor to be a top 3 finalist at the Global Advance Australian of the Year Awards, held at the Sydney
Opera House last Monday. Although, Lauren Jackson (WNBA) won the sport category, Netball America got a special recognition for all the great work to promote the sport globally, and even Greg "The Shark" Norman was impressed with our efforts.

University Teams Growing Across the USA!

For the first time in US Netball history three university teams are competing in a US Netball tournament.  They will compete in a pool of 25 netball teams. 

Netball America is working with the USA International University Sports Federation to develop university teams across the USA.  Every netball organization or administrator across the globe has a responsibility to take action to help increase netball participation, and the USA is certainly the biggest netball opportunity that is being left behind by the global community.  This is so critical to develop the sport of Netball globally, and we appreciate those who can see the big picture to help develop Netball as a university sport in the USA.

    BRIEF HISTORY:


    In 1972 ladies from different sports clubs in Bermuda were invited to the National Sports Club to start a ne
    tball league. The first netball games were played on Saturday December 2, 1972. Several Sports clubs entered a team (most of whom had two teams). The games were played Saturday afternoons and Sunday mornings on school grounds, club grounds and at the National Stadium. The first teams of netball were as follows:
    1.PHC
    2.Somerset Cricket Club
    3.Pembroke Community Club
    4. Centaurs United
    5. Devonshire Colts
    6.North Village Angels
    7. Bailey's Bay Club
    8. Devonshire Recreation Club
    9. Young Men Social Club

    Bermuda participated in their first international tournament in 1977 in the Bahamas.
