General Information about the National All Schools Netball Challenge

We have recently received a number of questions from schools regarding details about the Challenge, its timing, and travel arrangements to and from the stadium and the airport. I aim to address these queries to provide clarity for everyone.

• What is the National All Schools Netball Challenge?

  • The National All Schools Netball Challenge is a premier All School competition, bringing together teams from across Australia to compete and celebrate the sport of netball.

• The Challenge will begin with a Opening ceremony and end with a Closing ceremony.
