The Katanning Netball Association's Net Set season has concluded for 2025, with their last day being held last Monday afternoon for all teams.
After a brilliantly run last session, the association's youngest players had their wind-up, with some amazing delicious treats to indulge in and certificates for all the outstanding little net-setters for completing a whole season in 2025.
KNA Net Set co-ordinator Tania Edwards has again done an amazing job at creating a season to remember for the kids.
She is on-point with really getting the kids into zones they enjoy, trying new things and embracing the fun and learning at the same time.
The drills were run in the final session in fun game fashion, developing skills along the way. There wer plenty of proud parents, coaches and helpers — the team of people to get every Monday and Saturday happening.
Saturdays were always the best part of the week for the Net Set kids, as they got to play a mini-game against each other in proper uniforms.
With the junior kids also playing at the same time on surrounding courts, it gave Net Set a real feel for what a game day is like.
Watching the little future netballers on court is amazing to see.
All other divisions are on a two-week break for the July school holidays.

KNA 2025: Katanning 14-and-under team bring home silver at Great Southern Regional Championships in Albany

Katanning Netball Association performed well in the 2025 Great Southern Regional Championships in Albany at the weekend, with one of its teams finishing runners-up and the other also reaching the finals. Teams from all over the Great Southern come together to participate in this event, including teams from Albany, Katanning, Kojonjup, Narrogin, Denmark, Esperance and Ongerup. KNA took a 14-and-under team and a 20-and-under team to compete this year. The regional championships are a key part of the Netball WA pathway, and they offer major opportunities for regional players to develop and progress further in their netball journey. It also acts as a great opportunity for umpires and coaches to be recognised by Netball WA for development and accreditation. Both Katanning teams had a great weekend, and gave their absolute best across the whole weekend to make it worth the travel and the cold weather. Games started on Friday night for the 20-and-under team, and the 14-and-under team crammed all their games in over the following two days. The 14-and-under team had some great wins against some tough competitors, dominating the ladder in their pool and remaining undefeated in all rounds. It was the grand final that was a test for the them, however, up against top team Esperance. The team showed pure grit all the way. Esperance slipped ahead by half-time, but the Katanning girls kept pushing in the second half. They put up a competitive fight and brought home silver to finish their championships weekend as runners-up in their age category. The 20-and-under team is a new team put together for KNA this year, formed from various clubs throughout the association. It was terrific to see the young women come together and form as one to represent Katanning. This team had a few great wins, taking on everything that was thrown at them, mixing up their combos and still coming together as one each game. This team also made the finals rounds, but were knocked out by a mighty Esperance side in a close and hard-fought game. With the weekend over and everyone well-rested after a fortnight's holiday, it's back to round 13 at the Katanning Leisure Centre on Saturday, July 26.

KNA 2025: Cardinals Force fight for A1 win, Allstars and Kojonup boast confident A2 wins

Katanning Netball Association are more than halfway through their 2025 season and round eight proved to be a busy week for everyone involved. Another round of mid-week games for both juniors and seniors with everyone on the sidelines rugged up in jackets, beanies and blankets. On Tuesday afternoon the juniors cranked up the leisure centre and on Wednesday evening it was the seniors' turn. In A1 Te Taitonga 1 and Cardinals Force battled it out, and with some extra drive Cardinals nabbed a 51-38 win. Allstars 1 had no mercy for Olympians 1, winning 71-27 in a one-sided result. Kojonup 1 kept Broomehill at bay with a big 76-31 win. A2 had a nice tough game between Te Taitonga 2 and Olympians 2. Olympians had the answers in a close contest 34-32 while Allstars 2 had a massive win against Olympians 3, dominating all four quarters to win 70-21. Dumbleyung faced Kojonup 2, and the scoreboard at the final whistle did not reflect the game itself. Greatly contested from both teams, it was Kojonup that managed to sink the most goals with a strong 51-20 result. In the A3 competition Allstars 3 sealed the deal with three wins for their club. Up against Cardinals Fever, Allstars did not let up to claim a 42-28 win. Te Taitonga 3 had a great battle against Kojonup 3. Always showing a tough game, Kojonup grabbed the win with both hands 42-31 at the final whistle. On Sunday the KNA had two teams attending the Albany City Nissan Junior Netball Carnival. With an under-11 and an under-13 side representing the association, Sunday was a massive day for some of Katanning's youngest talents. A number of players in the under-11 team had not been teammates before, but rather opponents in local competition. The unity the young players displayed and encouragement with each other was great to see. Taking court and playing five games, the under-11s were undefeated in their games, leading to the grand final where Katanning brought were victorious against Royal Saints. The under-13s were unfortunate not to bring home a finals win for their division, however with two wins and a couple of losses, it was never a dull moment watching these girls. With another carnival around the corner in Albany, development training will be back in full force.
