Arawang Netball Courts

Last updated April 2026

Arawang Netball Courts in Stirling is where Canberra’s junior netball club players first learn to sprint, dodge and cheer in equal measure. The bright green courts hum with the energy of mini skippers passing with purpose, defenders lunging for intercepts, and coaches shouting encouragement over the clatter of sticks. Kids love the crack of the ball against the goalpost and the chance to wear a jersey that finally fits — no hand-me-downs here. The club’s focus on teamwork means every session ends with high-fives and a shared juice box, not a scoreboard. Parents appreciate the supportive vibe and the fact that the club is right in the suburb, making it a quick, no-fuss drop-off on weekday afternoons. **What to Bring** Light, breathable clothes. Running shoes with good grip. A water bottle big enough for a full training run. A spare hair tie if it’s windy. Sunscreen even on cloudy days — the courts bake by noon. **Best Age Range** Best for 5–12 year olds. Younger siblings can join the mini-netball intro clinics that run alongside the main games. **Good to Know** Annual registration fee is around $120 per player, covering uniforms and insurance. Training nights are Tuesdays and Thursdays 4:30–6pm from February to September. Parking is free but fills up fast after 4:15pm. No food stalls on site, so pack a snack for the drive home. **Nearby** Drop into the playground at Stirling Park in Stirling after training for a quick wind-down. **Tips From Other Parents** Arrive ten minutes early on the first session to meet the coaches and scope out the change rooms. Bring a small towel to wipe down the benches — they get surprisingly sweaty. Volunteer as a team manager next season — it’s the easiest way to keep tabs on your child’s progress and meet other parents.
