Where we play
All our teams play in the CDNA competition at Duncan Mackinnon Reserve in Murrumbeena. Duncan Mackinnon Reserve is located on the corner of North Road and Murrumbeena Road.
There is parking at the courts, however this fills up very quickly on match days. Parking is also available in nearby side streets and on Murrumbeena and East Boundary Roads. There is also public transport near the courts, including the 630 bus.
We also enter teams in various external tournaments throughout the year. Tournaments are not compulsory but they do provide players with a great opportunity for additional match practice.
When we play
There are two seasons during the year. The first – the Autumn season – runs from February to June. The second – the Spring season – runs from July to November. There are no matches during school holidays.
The 11 and under competition takes place on Friday nights during the season. Match times are 5.00pm, 5.40pm and 6.20pm. All other competitions are run on Saturdays, between 8.00am and 12.30pm.
Training
Training takes place each Wednesday for an hour. Training times are dependent on the coaches' availability and the availability of the training facilities. All training takes place at the netball courts at Duncan Mackinnon Reserve. Training may be cancelled due to weather. If this is the case, your coach or team manager will notify you in advance.
Uniforms
All players taking to the court must wear an Ormond Netball Club uniform. Uniforms are available to purchase through the club. Click here to visit our Uniform page.
