Sporting Schools is an initiative by the Australian Government, enabling schools across the ACT to seek funding for implementing Netball Programs for their students. These programs are adaptable to meet the unique needs of each school and its students. In addition to program delivery, Sporting Schools offers the opportunity to acquire equipment for program implementation. The goal of Sporting Schools is to cultivate a lifelong passion for sports among children, promoting physical and mental well-being, and ensuring a fun and inclusive environment. Netball Schools and Fast5 netball programs are designed to blend skill-based activities with modified games. They are led by certified Netball ACT coaches, guaranteeing a high-quality netball experience for all participants.
