Program Overview
The NCAS Netball Umpires Program is a crucial component of the Netball NSW Performance Pathway, focusing on identifying, developing, and enhancing the skills of promising young netball umpires. As a foundational element of the Netball NSW High Performance Program, the NCAS Netball Program selects umpires who demonstrate the potential to advance to National C or B Badges.
This program is designed to assist the individual development of each umpire and provide opportunities to progress further in the sport. The program has an emphasis on providing greater skills development, strength and conditioning support and physical preparation. Squad members receive a sports education program with modules covering sports nutrition, injury management, sports psychology, media training, youth leadership and sport & community drugs awareness.
The 2025 program will run in 2 training blocks, from November 2024 to April 2025 & August to September 2025. Successful athletes will have the opportunity to participate in the Netball NSW Academy Camp, the Your Local Club Academy Games (11-13th April 2025) and the Academy Netball Challenge (27-29th September 2025).
