Eastern Netball Pre Auckland
Eastern Netball was established at Howick Pakuranga Netball centre and quickly became the lead club in the region reknown for developing talented young players Who represented the Counties Manukau Region from age group to NPC level. The advent of the National Bank Cup saw a number of our players invovled in either the Academy programmes or the Cometz Franchise team Alison Toi and Amber TeVita /Harris were 2 players that represented our club at that level.
Alison Toi went on the make the New Zealand Under 21 and aside for Tracy Eyrl Shortland whom Lyn coached as a youngester before sending her to the SHore ,Alison was our first NZ Representative and set the standard for other young club players to aspire to
Coaches who were instrumental to sucess while at HPNC were Lyn Bailey Tracy Shortland Paula Bailey Jan Lundon Bindi Houkamau Ira Topia
Bindi maintained our place at HPNC for a number of years before we moved the entire club to ANC
Thanks for that Bindi it was appreciated
Move to Auckland Netball
After dominating the HPNC Premier competition for 6 consecutive seasons a decision based around the needs of the players and their pathway was made to move to Auckland Netball Centre. We have been fortunate to have had
a core group of Senior players at the time Ira Topia Audra Watts Jane ChiTar who supported a very young base with the tranistion to ANC where we were successful in attaining Premier status in our first year and we have remained in the Top Four clubs ever since. Around this core group we have  developed  younger players who have been bought thro by the next group of core players that have maintained our prem team Joss Granger Amenda Payne Jane Chitar and Natu Fa'anana over the 4 seasons
The last four years  have seen our Premier Team make consecutive  finals and place  Runners Up Winners Runners Up and more recently in 2008 Winners again.
Again we have had strong representation in centre and regional representative teams at age groups and NPC level With Amenda Payne Susan Tagicakibau and Alysha Hukatai being part of the National NPC title winners in 2007 the first time the Auckland region had won this title in 12 years
Eastern netball is built of a foundation of Values which endeavour to support players to be the best that they can be Be it  National Regional Club or Social level ( for those that become legends in their own minds) We are family based and all inclusive in our outlook
