Christchurch Netball is proud to run a strong and successful representative programme, which has produced outstanding athletes and contributed to the national netball landscape over many years. The Christchurch Netball Pathways programme is designed to support players and volunteers with development opportunities. These opportunities are designed to lift the mana of participants, encouraging them to learn, connect and grow. Our programme supports the development pathway to elite teams including the Trident Homes Tactix and Mainland National Netball League (NNL) teams.

We proudly field the following teams to represent Christchurch Netball:

Opens - 1 teams

Under 18 - 2 teams 

Under 16 - 4 teams (including 1 Mixed team) 

These teams showcase the depth of talent across our region and reflect our commitment to supporting players, coaches and officials to reach their full potential.
