UNSW Netball Club

UNSW Netball is a netball club located in Kingsford, which is in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney. As our name suggests, we are affiliated with the University of New South Wales, although our club members include a rich mixture of players; some who have never attended UNSW nor any other university, some who are ex-students and of course, some who are current students.

UNSW Netball was founded in 1966 as the Women's Basketball Club (which the game was known as at that time), and changed it's name to the Netball Club in 1970. It was the first exclusively female club and has a long and very proud history. After something of a revival in the late nineties, the last 15 years or so has seen the Club grow into a large, successful and inclusive group of people who feel a part of something. This is strongly reflected by the fact that in 2005, for the first time in the Club's history, we were proud to say we had members who had been with us for at least 10 years.

In 2012 that number has grown 10-fold, and now we can also say, very proudly, that we have members who have been with us for 17 years! With our recent inclusion of junior teams, we hope those numbers and longevity will continue to grow and grow.
