FutureFERNS Year 3&4 (5v5)


2025 SEASON

It is important that we align with Netball New Zealand’s Future Fern programme.  We will trust in the Netball New Zealand programme, which has significant research behind it, and deliver it accordingly.


REGISTRATIONS

Waiuku Netball Centre will take individual registrations for the 2025 season for our Year 3-4 players to play 5v5 netball.

Registration forms have been distributed to the clubs, schools, on our facebook page and our website.  This will help with continuity in the future when the children are old enough to play directly for their club.  We will accept registrations throughout the season.


We will endeavour to keep children from the same schools in teams together.  Please note that this will be dependent on numbers and parent helpers.  Players will be placed in their appropriate year level.
