If attending college you are encouraged to play for your own college team in the first instance.  Approach your school Sport Coordinator to find out more. A list of colleges that play within our winter competition are listed further down this page below club contacts table.

If a school-leaver or adult you need to decide on a club. It is smart to trial at a club that offers a range of teams within each grade so you get a feel for where you belong and slot in correctly for your skill level. Our winter competition runs April to August. Winter Competition grades are explained at the top of this page. Premier grades play 4 x 15 minute quarter games. Prem Reserve down to Senior grades play 4 x 10 minute quarter games. Check the club websites/Facebook links in the table further down this page. Contact the club! Don’t be afraid to ask questions about coaches, trainings, fitness opportunities and club social activities on offer if that's what motivates you most. It is important to find a club where you feel comfortable and can play at the level that helps you develop however best suits you. View club trial information here

If attending school yet wishing to play for a club, please discuss your options with your Sport Coordinator to see if they can help. If intending to play elsewhere, notification should be given to your college. A Player College to Club Notification needs to be sent by the Sport Coordinator via email to games@netballwellington.co.nz.

Look for a club that offers teams in senior grades.
​​​​​​​Be mindful when joining any team, it is optimal if you can commit to play for the whole season.

​​​​​​​Contact the club and don’t be afraid to ask questions about grades, trainings and club activities etc.  The club may require you to attend trials. Don’t be put off as it is a good way to get a feel for how the club operates and to work out if it is what you are looking for... not to mention meet new people! If you want to play in a more social grade make it clear from the start so that the club can place you in the right team. Communication is key! It's important to find a club where you feel comfortable and where you can play at a level that you will enjoy.

First step would be to approach an existing club and ask to enter a team under their umbrella. You'll need to pay their fees and be subject to any rules they have in place.

If motivtated to set up your own single team member club, best consult with our Community Competitions Officer via email to games@netballwellington.co.nz well before our season starts in April. Associated cost is stated in our NWC Rules and involves a one-off affiliation fee as well as an annual registration fee per team for the season. Remember you also need to decide upon a club name & playing uniform then ensure the uniform is registered and approved by our Centre prior to purchase & order in time for the start of the season. This helps ensure uniforms remain unique and do not too closely resemble others already in circulation. Uniforms need not be glitsy - a uniform top with skirt/shorts may do. Please enquire to above email.
