    The Junior Leadership Program, established in 1998, has seen well over one hundred and ninety young members graduate, with many of those graduates taking on leadership roles within our clubs and the Southern Tasmanian Netball Association itself.

     

    Purpose:

    The main focus of the Junior Leadership Program is to give young members the skills and resources they need to become a leader within their club, and the association. These skills are easily transferrable to other aspects of the junior leaders life.

     

    Learning Outcomes:

    Through this program, participants will gain knowledge on a variety of subjects relating to netball and beyond. By the end of the program, we expect participants will have gained a greater knowledge in the following areas;

    • Coaching

      • Including Foundation Coaching Course

    • Umpiring

      • Including Online Netball Theory Exam

    • Health & Nutrition

    • Sports Injury Management

    • Mental Health & Wellbeing

    • Netball in the Media

    • Women in Leadership

    • The Importance of Culture

    • Sports Funding & Grants

     

    The Junior Leadership Program also allows participants to help out with STNA events towards the end of the season. These events include;

    • Zambrero Premier League MVP Count

    • STNA Presentation Evening

    • Zambrero Premier League Grand Final Night

    • STNA Winter Roster Grand Finals

    •  

    Participants will be invited to attend the Junior Presentation Night on the 30th of August 2024, to celebrate their achievements and receive their graduation certificate.
