Massey Netball (MN) is a club of volunteers made up of current students, past students AND non-students. We have around 150 members covering a wide spectrum of ages ranging from 15 years to Masters level and a range of skill levels from Representatives, Premier, to Social-Competitive, to ‘I’ve never played before. If you want to play we will find the team for you!

You will find our season fees to be very competitive which helps to cover Netball Manawatu's fees along with social events, playing equipment and warm up shirts. The club has a fantastic friendly atmosphere and our goal is to provide a place where players can balance study/work/family/social or whatever AND play netball. We want you to enjoy Netball, grow as a player, and create friendships with others. Massey Netball has about 10 competitive netball teams playing in the Netball Manawatu competition in any given year plus another 10 teams in our own ‘very social (mixed)’ league.

All players are expected to trial for these teams and all teams are expected to train weekly. Trainings are generally held at Massey courts and/or in the Massey University Teaching Gym/Sports Hall.

If you are wanting ‘Social Social’, Massey Netball also run our own social grade competition (can be mixed teams) at Massey courts on SATURDAY MORNINGS during semester time only for those who want to give the game a go, keep active during study time without the stress of committing to weekly training. There are no trials for this Saturday morning league. If you are keen to get involved in our social league competition, register through our Website.

Marist Netball Club

Marist Netball, as it is now known, has been a force in the Manawatu Netball scene for over half a century.Originally called St. Joseph's Old Girls (coached by Betty Steffenson) and later named Convent Old Girls, it became Marist in 1987. However, the club's players continue to wear the traditional black and white colours that are symbolic of the Catholic Sisters of Mercy Order. This Order made a huge contribution to both primary and secondary education in New Zealand including Palmerston North from the 1920s until 1987 when the last nun (Sr Clare Vaughan) was farewelled at St Peter's College.The Sisters passed on their love of netball to all the girls in their charge and thus created a foundation for Marist Netball and kindred clubs throughout the country.

Our Marist A1 team will be playing in the promotion/relegation tournament on April 12th/13th for a spot in the Tuesday night Premier 1 grade. Any players wishing to trial for our A1 side, will need to be available Tuesday evenings and Saturdays.

We field teams from Premier through to Social and have the full support of the Marist Sports Club and the other codes.

Freyberg Netball Club

Ngā mihi kia a koutou,

Welcome to Freyberg Rugby/Hockey/Netball club!

Our club has been building and developing over the years, and we now have Rugby, netball and Hockey as part of our club! We are a very whanau-orientated club and we love to gather together for social events at our very own clubrooms on a Saturday night after a big day of sport!

Our netball club is built off the values - of TRUST, RESPECT and DIVERSITY (Our club is your club)! All we ask is you bring the same values with you on and off the court!

Due to many of our committee members moving away, we haven't had the opportunity to complete a trial for our club this year!

So, this year will be a little bit different for Freyberg Netball, but our values will remain the same:)

We are looking for competitive and social teams that are already created and are looking for a club to play for!

We will support your teams, managers and coaches and you will become Freyberg! We provide uniforms, gear bags, equipment etc! As well as the fun social nights at the clubrooms!!

If this sounds like you, please get in contact!!

We currently have one confirmed competitive team with our club this year and we are open to having up to 5 teams! We also try our best to be a club with cheaper fees. You can be super competitive or super social, we are a judgement-free club - so if the shoe fits, lace it up!
