Noosa Netball celebrates 50 years and a new clubhouse

Noosa Netball launches into its 2025 season with double the reason to celebrate, marking 50 years of netball in the region and the long-awaited upgrade of its clubhouse.

What began in 1975 with just two local teams has grown into a thriving community. By 1978 Noosa had 14 teams playing locally, and by 1980, more than 350 players from across the region were hitting the grass courts built by Noosa Council.

Over the years, the grass courts have been replaced with hard surface courts and we now we have over 800 members playing our wonderful game.

The first clubhouse, built in 1989 by volunteers and a local builder, has served generations.

Now a modern new facility is on the way thanks to funding from the State Government and support from Noosa Council.

Every Saturday morning along McKinnon Drive, you’ll find hundreds of players and supporters gathered, proof that netball is still one of Australia’s fastest-growing sports.

More than just a game, Noosa Netball promotes fitness, friendship, teamwork, and leadership in young people across the shire.

Come down and see the energy, spirit and history in motion.
