How will trials work?
Multiple games are played where triallists will play at least 2 games in their preferred positions per trial. Trials will include a Netball Smart Dynamic Warm Up session, and may consist of a fitness test such as the Bronco.

The fun will be happening on the side-line where our Kaiawhina will be supporting our Rangatahi, parents and all who are involved with trials, to ensure everyone has a great experience.
Will there be multiple teams selected for each age group?
This decision will be made closer to trials dates and will depend on number of triallists and Coaches/Managers to take the teams.
How do I apply to be a Coach or Manager?

What are the costs for rep players for the season?
Player fees will be announced in an email immediately following team selections.
When will the teams be announced?
Successful trialists and teams will be announced once the Selectors and all involved are happy with the process, and are 100% ready. These will be posted here on the website and also on our PNC Facebook page.
When will trainings be?
Training for all teams will be on Wednesday nights, 7-8:30pm.
Training is compulsory for all players. If unable to attend a training session, players must provide substantial evidence of a legitimate reason. Failure to do so may lead to being removed from the team.
Will there be opportunities to fundraise for tournaments?
Yes, the PNC team are organising fundraising opportunities for players going on tournament to bring down individual costs. This will be discussed in an email following team selection.
