SPORTING SCHOOLS

Netball NSW is proudly the sole provider of Sporting Schools Netball Programs in NSW.

Netball NSW is encouraging NSW Schools to get involved in the exciting Sporting Schools program!

Sporting Schools aims to help children foster a lifelong interest in sport, all the while gaining a healthier mind and body and having fun in a safe, inclusive environment.

Programs

Netball Australia’s official Netball Schools program has been developed to provide children with the best possible learning and playing experience, with sessions catering for students of all year levels and abilities through skill development and game sense activities.

Fast5 offers secondary students the opportunity to play the game differently with only 5 positions on the court and rolling subs, shorter quarters and multiple scoring zones. Students will also develop skills in off-court roles of umpire, timekeeper and scorer. Get ready for netball re-imagined!

The weekly program will be coordinated and coached by accredited Netball NSW Development Officers to ensure a quality experience for all participants.

CAN TEACHERS DELIVER?
Teachers are eligible to deliver the Sporting Schools Programs in their schools. Teachers must be an individual who is an employee of the School that has a valid State and/or Territory teacher registration.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

Fun and inclusive for all participants, our Netball NSW Sporting Schools program fosters social interactive learning, development of motor skills and confidence through fun and games.

DURATION OF THE SESSIONS?

Sessions are generally based around a 45 to 60 minute session. Sporting Schools programs can be delivered at a time that suits your school either before or during school hours.

CAN I PURCHASE EQUIPMENT WITH MY SPORTING SCHOOLS FUNDING?

Yes, equipment can be purchased using Sporting Schools funding. High Schools can purchase a Fast5 Equipment Kit through the Sporting Schools portal, while all schools with funding are able to purchase equipment from external providers. We recommend purchasing equipment through HART Sport as they have a variety of options that will suit your schools needs.
