NETBALL NORTH LEADERSHIP PROGRAMME
The development and implementation of this programme would not have been possible without the valuable support of ASB Community Trust, an organisation committed to improving sporting opportunities for New Zealand youth.
This project is designed to assist the youth of the region to gain access to recreation and leadership development and participation; to inspire and train leaders based on their involvement in sport but to ensure that skills are transferred and applied in other community activities.
For more information on this programme please contact the Operations Manager Debbie Kirton on email at debbie@netballnorth.co.nz

Netball North Incorporated is one of 12 Region Entities set up by Netball New Zealand to administer the game at a regional level within New Zealand. Netball North was established in 1999 and is administered by the Netball North Board. There are seven Board Members including the Chair and the President. Up until 2003 a volunteer Board and a part-time administrator administered the game of netball in the North. In 2003 a Regional Manager was employed fulltime and consequently became part of the group of 12 Regional Managers set up with funding secured by Netball New Zealand through the Scottwood Trust.
