Zone Service Awards

Northern Zone value our volunteers and those that contribute to our region supporting our mission to grow and strengthen netball. Nominations for Northern Zone Service or Life Awards are now open – see the information attached. Please take time to consider those that may be eligible for recognition and gather their history of achievements ready to submit your nomination early next year.

It has been noted by Award Panels quite often there is lack of detail and historical facts of a nominee’s achievements, so do please ensure quality applications are submitted so we can recognise the wonderful mahi undertaken for our Zone. The closing date is 5 February 2025, but please do get these in just as soon as you can.
