Netball Sub Club
Founded in 1998, The Waves Netball Club thrives today with member numbers continuing to grow each and every year. This includes coaches, assistance coaches, managers, development umpires, badged umpires and our diligent committee members. The Waves Netball Club prides itself for its ongoing development of players, umpires and coaches, acceptance of all levels of playing ability and unification of all players with most recently the welcome inclusion of males into the sport.
You can find our club training hard most weeknights at our training grounds on Thabeban Street and hitting the courts Saturday afternoons. All teams from SETGO (7-10 year olds) through to Division 1 play across a range of times which commence from 1130am.
The Waves Netball Club consists of teams from 7 years of age through to Division 1 which includes a Ladies and masters Division. In 2019 The Waves Netball created club history having our 2 division 1 teams, Gold and Blue, play off in the grand final. The Waves Netball was wonderfully represented by this with the years of development and depth as many of the players played from a juniors level within the club. In 2024 The Waves Netball continued in strength with multiple teams having the opportunity to finish in the top 4 to play off to make the Grand Final. (Include of number of teams who won) with Waves Gold (Division 1) making it their 5th Premiership.
Local competition was relocated in 2015 from Daph Geddes Kendal Flat Courts and is now held at the Enid Ethel Drive Bundaberg Superpark, which provides Bundaberg Netball Association with flood free facilities and future support and growth for Bundaberg Netball.
The Waves Netball Club prides itself on acceptance of all levels of ability and integration of all ages. Our senior players are involved in the development of our juniors by assisting in skill development sessions/coaching/guidance and support on game day. Yearly investment is made into the development of players, coaches and umpires with assistance towards continuing to maintain current qualifications, progression development, education and up to date equipment. Many hours are spent planning the season to ensure we deliver opportunities for all our members to continue to better themselves.
The Waves Netball Club are very proud to have many junior and senior players selected in Bundaberg representative teams each year, with multiple coaches, managers and umpires also representing Bundaberg at the many carnivals and levels attended.
The Waves Netball commits and believes in giving back to the community via supporting local fundraising events. Each year The Waves Netball Club host Pink Sock Day in association with BCNA to raise much needed funds and awareness of Breast Cancer. This is celebrated and in conjunction with Bundaberg Netball association and all associated Netball Clubs. Every year the figure raised continues to grow. We have also included pink into our uniform as sign of our ongoing commitment to this fundraiser that is close to our hearts.
Our club is proud of our history, our people and the future we assist our community to create, thanks to the wonderful volunteers, players, parents and ongoing supporters. We would love to see you this, and the many years to come, in our wonderful club colours, in any role you choose.
