As the year draws to a close, we want to sincerely thank you for your continued support and engagement. This time of year offers a valuable opportunity to pause and reflect on what we’ve accomplished. Take a look below at some of our key achievements.

It has been a truly meaningful year, marked by strong collaboration, growth, and a shared commitment to serving our members and partners. Together, we’ve connected communities and advanced the sport across the USA, Canada, the Caribbean, and internationally, strengthening the global footprint of Netball and the impact of our collective efforts. Read about our key awards here.

None of this progress would be possible without the passion and support of our community, and we look forward to building on this momentum as we move into the year ahead.

Wishing you a joyful holiday season and continued success in the New Year from the Netball America® Leadership team below.

Throughout the year, we proudly supported member tournaments, strengthening the foundations of Netball and elevating competition at every level. We established new clubs, continued to nurture and grow existing ones, introduced Netball to teachers in 12 new cities and were thrilled to welcome new clubs joining our community from coast to coast. This incredible momentum reflects the passion, commitment, and unity of our members as we continue to expand the reach and impact of Netball across North America.
