Registrations are now open for the 2023 Koori Netball Tournament. The competition provides an opportunity for netballers to showcase their talent in a competitive and inclusive environment, and to enhance reconciliation, teams may feature both Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal netballers.
Hosted by Charlestown Netball Association with the support of the NSW Office of Sport and Netball NSW, the tournament features six divisions, including women’s and mixed for both adults and juniors.
In a conversation with NITV Radio, Di Pascoe Charlestown Netball Association President said that there were only 9 Koori teams in the inaugural tournament 23 years ago.
This year, organisers are expecting over 100 teams and up to 1000 netballers.
“We started the Koori Netball Tournament 23 years ago and we love that it's still going strong, that it's still bringing people together for two days of fun. Hosting the Koori Netball Tournament is an annual highlight for us, it's such a great event,” Di Pascoe said.
