Where to from here?

• Netball South Africa have worked endlessly over the past 8 months to create a platform to launch the first ever professional women’s competition on the continent!

• Most of the planning has been conducted out of NSA’s own limited investment funds and by volunteers

• NSA is ready to launch the Netball Premier League but needs the required and much needed funding to do so!
