Pakenham Netball Association

Pakenham Netball Association (PNA) is a sports club located in Cardinia Shire, dedicated to the development of netball across the region. The association focuses on various key areas to promote the growth and skills of netball players and coaches.

PNA offers Coach Development workshops on a quarterly basis, conducted by renowned netball companies. These workshops provide support and leadership skills to the association coaches, as well as enhancing their match skills to better develop their players.

Umpire Development is also a priority for PNA, with their Developers present at all games within the Cardinia Life competition. Their role is to offer guidance, training, and support to all umpires, identify individual development needs, and provide necessary assistance. They also focus on the development of trainers for beginner umpires.

PNA's Net and Set programme is held on Wednesday nights at Cardinia Life, serving as a stepping stone to the 9U competition. This programme focuses on teaching basic ball skills, ball handling, court knowledge, and game play, providing a solid foundation for young netball enthusiasts.

Pakenham Power, the representative teams of PNA, offers a pathway programme for coaches and players to represent the association at local tournaments. To be eligible for Pakenham Power, players must have played within PNA.

An Annual Tournament is organised by PNA to provide the 9U and 11U age groups an opportunity to participate in a tournament environment. This tournament is a fun-filled event with no ladders or finals and takes place every October.

The competition at Cardinia Life is facilitated by Aligned Leisure, who are responsible for managing and administering the domestic netball competition affiliated with Netball Victoria. Further information about summer and the domestic netball competition can be found on their website.
