Last month we celebrated 18 coaches earning their Netball New Zealand coaching awards and the momentum hasn't slowed. Another 16 coaches from across the Zone have now completed theirs, bringing our recent total to 34.
Behind every award is a coach who has put in the mahi, reflecting on their practice, learning new approaches, and showing up for their players week after week. That investment pays off on court, on the sideline, and in the culture of every team they lead.
