We are the leader in bringing Netball to the USA. Our aim is to encourage children and families to be physically active and maintain a healthy lifestyle, including people with disabilities. Netball addresses issues of inequality in sport, especially for those in low socio-economic areas, by opening doors to those who currently do not play sports. Since 2008, our programs have reached over 400,000 people worldwide.
Netball America® is a not-for-profit (501c3) membership based association founded in 2008 and incorporated in 2009. We are now the largest Netball association in the USA with over 10,000 members, a presence in 33 U.S. States and over 50 clubs.
We encounter many organizations during our season and sincerely appreciate Netball America’s responsiveness in all communications. The consistent level of professionalism displayed by Netball America impressed me. Most of all, the energy and cooperation of the Netball America team ensured all aspects of the netball showcase ran smoothly.
