Azz1 Netball Club was established in 2013, beginning its journey at its home grounds of Manurewa Netball Centre. Built on strong family values and a passion for netball, the club was created to provide a supportive, inclusive, and competitive environment for players of all ages.

In 2021, Azz1 made the move to Papakura Netball Centre, proudly adopting Papakura as their second home. Since relocating, the club has continued to grow in strength, culture, and community presence, building lasting connections within the Papakura netball whānau.

As a family-oriented, non-profit club, Azz1 is committed to providing opportunities for growth and development while striving for excellence on the court. We celebrate teamwork, leadership, dedication, and success — both in competition and within our wider community.
