Our Association

Ballina Netball Association is a proud, volunteer-run community, bringing players, coaches, officials and families together through a shared love of netball.

We provide opportunities for players to have fun, compete and grow at all levels – from grassroots participation through to representative pathways – working collaboratively to deliver positive and inclusive experiences for all.

At BNA, we value resilience, skill development, leadership and strong teammate qualities. Through a focus on connection, positive culture, and honest, purposeful communication, we support individuals to develop as players, coaches and umpires within our association.
