  • SCHOOL SPORT AUSTRALIA 12 & U and 15 & U NETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS HISTORY the Championships Had Their Origins in the Austra
    SCHOOL SPORT AUSTRALIA 12 & U and 15 & U NETBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS HISTORY The championships had their origins in the Australian State Schools' Basketball Association developed originally for primary schools and played predominately on grass. Interstate carnivals commenced in 1923 and continued in 1924 when a number of exchanges between individual states occurred. In 1924 visiting teachers from Victoria, Queensland and South Australia to New South Wales made exhaustive inquiries into the question of girls’ games with the view to inaugurating interstate contests. In 1925 South Australia hosted New South Wales, Victoria and Queensland in both a junior and senior competition, one of the games attracted over 2000 spectators. South Australia was victorious in the junior section and South Australia and Victoria both finished in first place in the senior. This competition continued in 1926 in New South Wales and 1927 in Victoria. With the introduction of a perpetual trophy the first officially recognised Australian State Schoolgirls Basketball (Netball) Championship was played at the Practising School, Brisbane in 1928. The final, on the afternoon of the August 22nd, was before a large crowd. Victoria convincingly beat NSW 23 goals to 4 goals. Mr John Donald Howie donated the perpetual trophy following the win of Victoria. Mr Howie was a Victorian Councillor from 1922 – 1932 and Mayor of Camberwell in 1927 and 1928. Australian schoolgirls tournaments were organised to combine both a netball competition and an educational tour, When girls weren’t playing they attended lessons at the local school or made educational day trips. In Brisbane the girls visited Toowoomba, the Olympic Tyre and Rubber Works in Geebung and took a trip to the South Coast of Queensland.

  • Suncorp Super Netball Launches Super Shot Rules Trial
    Suncorp Super Netball Launches Super Shot Rules Trial The Suncorp Super Netball (SSN) league has announced the introduction of the two-goal Super Shot for the 2020 season from the 1st August. The Super Shot will provide goal attacks and goal shooters the opportunity to score two goals by shooting from a 1.9 metre designated zone within the goal circle and will be active in the final five minutes of each quarter, providing a blend of the traditional game with the new. The decision was made by the Super Netball Limited, the league commission established by Netball Australia to help innovate and grow the commercial opportunities within the SSN and is fully endorsed by Netball Australia. The Suncorp Super Shot is one of three new rules being introduced into the league for 2020. The Super Shot will only be used in the SSN league and all other Netball in Australia, including international matches, will continue to adhere to the International Netball Federation (INF) Rules of Netball. As stated in the INF Rules of Netball handbook, ‘Variations to the Rules may be made for matches that are not for international play. The extent of these variations will depend on the level of competition. Decisions regarding variations will normally be made by the controlling authority for the competition.’ Liz Nicholl, CBE, INF President comments, “The INF is really excited to see Netball Australia trialling new rules for their Suncorp League this season. The year after a Netball World Cup is the perfect time for considering innovation; especially in 2020 when netball has been in lockdown creating space for new thinking.
