As a country we are still considered to be sport mad and it has been suggested that general elections can be won or lost on the outcome of an All Black’s game. The game of netball has a long and proud history. It now needs to evolve to meet the fast changing landscape of the recreation sector, competing sports and activities. For netball we know our core is strong as outlined below: Netball is the number one choice of team sport for females in New Zealand and the second largest participation sport in New Zealand after rugby. Netball is the most popular team sport for girls and the top participation sport in secondary schools. It was ranked in the top eight of sport and recreation activities participated in by girls in all age groups. Netball is the number one activity that girls aged 5-18 years want to try and do more of. An estimated 144,000 adults aged 16 – 64 years, or 5 per cent of the adult population, are also playing netball. Source: Sport New Zealand, 2012.
