'''Netball Australia''' is the peak governing body for the sport of [[netball]] in Australia. The organisation's stated objectives for Australian netball are to achieve national and international success in competition, encourage greater participation and spectator involvement, and ensure excellence in all spheres of the sport.


'''Netball Australia''' is the main governing body for [[netball in Australia]]. It is affiliated to [[World Netball]]. It is responsible for organising and administering the [[Australia national netball team]], [[Suncorp Super Netball]], [[Australian National Netball Championships]], and the [[Australian Netball Championships]]. It previously organised and administered the [[ANZ Championship]], the [[Commonwealth Bank Trophy]] league and the [[Esso/Mobil Superleague]].
The precursor to Netball Australia was the All Australia Women's Basket Ball Association, founded in 1927 on the back of efforts to establish a national tournament. This body was formed by netball groups from [[New South Wales]], [[Queensland]], [[South Australia]], Victoria and [[Western Australia]], with [[Tasmania]] joining shortly after and the [[Australian Capital Territory]] and [[Northern Territory]] joining in 1975 and 1977 respectively.


In 1970, the organisation changed its name to the All Australia Netball Association, and in 1986 it became a public company upon incorporation. Its name was changed, finally, to Netball Australia in 1993.
Netball Australia was originally founded in [[1927 in Australia|1927]] as the '''All Australia Women's Basket Ball Association'''. In 1970, after "women's basket ball" became known as [[netball]], the organisation changed its name to the '''All Australia Netball Association'''. It adopted its current name in 1993.


==History==
Netball Australia is federal in structure, with affiliated associations in all Australian states and mainland territories. It is changed its constitution in 2006 and is governed by a board of directors elected by the State and Territory Affiliated Associations. Aside from promoting the sport of netball, Netball Australia is responsible for determining rules and policies within Australia, and organising competition on behalf of the country.
Netball Australia was founded on 26/27 August [[1927 in Australia|1927]] as the '''All Australia Women's Basket Ball Association''' during an interstate women's basketball carnival. Its founding members included the Sydney City Girls' Amateur Sports Association ([[Netball New South Wales|New South Wales]]), the Australian Ladies Basket Ball Association ([[Queensland]]), the South Australian Women's Basket Ball Association ([[Netball South Australia|South Australia]]), the Melbourne Girls Basket Ball Association ([[Netball Victoria|Victoria]]) and the Basket Ball Association of Perth ([[Netball Western Australia|Western Australia]]). [[Tasmania]] began competing in national tournaments in 1933. The [[Netball Australian Capital Territory|Australian Capital Territory]] and [[Netball Northern Territory|Northern Territory]] joined in 1975 and 1977 respectively. In 1970, after "women's basket ball" became known as [[netball]], the organisation changed its name to the '''All Australia Netball Association'''. It adopted its current name in 1993.<ref name="awr010107">{{Cite web|url=https://www.womenaustralia.info/biogs/AWE2241b.htm|title=Netball Australia (1927 - )|publisher=www.womenaustralia.info|work=[[The Australian Women's Register]]|date=1 January 2007|access-date=13 September 2021}}</ref><ref name=netballauabout>{{cite web|url=https://netball.com.au/about|title=About (Netball Australia)|publisher=netball.com.au|access-date=11 September 2021}}</ref><ref name=netballauhistory>{{cite web|url=https://netball.com.au/history|title=The History of Netball Australia|publisher=netball.com.au|access-date=11 September 2021}}</ref>

==About Netball Australia==
! Years
Moves for the establishment of a central organising body and a National Tournament came almost simultaneously from Queensland and New South Wales.
! Competition

A national body for [[netball in Australia]] was founded at a meeting on 26–27 August 1927 when the All Australia Women's Basket Ball Association was formed at a meeting held in conjunction with an Interstate Basket Ball carnival.

Foundation Members of the Association were:

* New South Wales – The City Girls Amateur Sports Association
* Queensland – The Australian Ladies Basket Ball Association
* South Australia – South Australian Women's Basket Ball Association
* Victoria – The Melbourne Girls Basket Ball Association
* Western Australia – The Basket Ball Association of Perth

Tasmania affiliated soon after, having competed in Carnivals since 1933 with Australian Capital Territory (1975) and Northern Territory (1977) subsequently becoming full Members.

In 1970 the name of the game was changed to “Netball” and the word “Women’s” was deleted, changing the name to the All Australia Netball Association.

The AANA was incorporated as a public company limited by guarantee on 18 September 1986 and is governed by the Corporations Act 2001 (as amended from time to time). “Netball Australia” was registered as a Business Name in 1993.

The Company operates under Memorandum & Articles that are resolved by the Council. This group consists of two Delegates representing each State or Territory, and it meets twice a year, once to focus on operational issues and once to act as a major forum to discuss issues of significance to the long-term development and direction of netball.

The board of directors currently consists of President, Finance Director, Ordinary Directors (6) and the chief executive officer (non-elected position). The Board is elected by and accountable to the Council for the operation and good management of the Organisation., including long-term business and financial planning.

The chief executive officer carries out the role of Public Officer for the Company.

Netball Australia is the main governing body for netball in Australia. It is affiliated to World Netball. It is responsible for organising and administering the Australia national netball team, Suncorp Super Netball, Australian National Netball Championships, and the Australian Netball Championships. It previously organised and administered the ANZ Championship, the Commonwealth Bank Trophy league and the Esso/Mobil Superleague.

Netball Australia was originally founded in 1927 as the All Australia Women's Basket Ball Association. In 1970, after "women's basket ball" became known as netball, the organisation changed its name to the All Australia Netball Association. It adopted its current name in 1993.

History

[edit]

Netball Australia was founded on 26/27 August 1927 as the All Australia Women's Basket Ball Association during an interstate women's basketball carnival. Its founding members included the Sydney City Girls' Amateur Sports Association (New South Wales), the Australian Ladies Basket Ball Association (Queensland), the South Australian Women's Basket Ball Association (South Australia), the Melbourne Girls Basket Ball Association (Victoria) and the Basket Ball Association of Perth (Western Australia). Tasmania began competing in national tournaments in 1933. The Australian Capital Territory and Northern Territory joined in 1975 and 1977 respectively. In 1970, after "women's basket ball" became known as netball, the organisation changed its name to the All Australia Netball Association. It adopted its current name in 1993.[2][3][4]

Amid a funding crisis where Netball Australia lost A$7 million over two COVID-impacted years,[5] in 2022 the organisation announced that it had secured Hancock Prospecting as high performance program partner from 2022 to 2025, with an investment of A$15 million over four years. Netball Australia announced that Hancock would invest directly in the Diamonds’ athletes and coaches, and provide funding support for training camps and competitions.[6] The Diamonds team was photographed in uniform bearing the Hancock Prospecting logo. It was later revealed that some players did not support Hancock Prospecting as a sponsor due to historical comments made by the company's founder, Lang Hancock on indigenous issues and the company's record on environmental issues.[7][8][9] The controversy led to the resignation of Netball Australia Chair, Marina Go, citing personal reasons;[5][8] and the Diamonds refused to wear the sports uniform with Hancock Prospecting logo.[9] Within a month of announcing the sponsorship deal, Hancock Prospecting withdrew their offer, saying it did not wish to add to netball's “disunity problems”.[10] Hancock offered Netball Australia short-term funding until such time as a more permanent arrangement could be secured.[11][12]
