With 12 clubs across 2 divisions, the VNL provides a pathway for talented athletes to develop and showcase their abilities in a competitive pre-elite performance environment. The VNL is a crucial step in the Netball Victoria pathway for athletes, coaches, umpires and officials.
Boasting the title of the premier netball competition in Victoria, the Victorian Netball League prides itself on developing some of Australia’s best athletes, coaches, umpires and officials.
Highlighting the importance of the VNL in the pathway, there are a number of current and former VNL head coaches having held coaching roles at SSN clubs, and a large number of umpires and bench officials officiating SSN matches.
With 21 games per round encompassing 12 clubs across two divisions (Championship and 23 & Under), the VNL continues to be a pivotal competition in the Netball Victoria pathway.
