SACSNA REPRESENTATIVE SQUAD & WESTSIDE DEVELOPMENT TEAMS

What is Rep?
 

Our representative program offers young people the opportunity to compete in a challenging, higher-level environment. SACSNA has a strong history of player development and is committed to providing ongoing support for aspiring netballers.

Our representative teams proudly compete in both the Autumn (Jan–Jun) and Spring (Jul–Dec) seasons at the Parkville State Netball Centre (SNC) or Riverside.
