In its sixteenth year, the 2020 NAIDOC Netball Carnival cemented itself as one of the largest Indigenous sporting events in Australia, with more than 100 teams coming together at the Gold Netball Centre on Sunday 15 November.
Supported by Principal Partner of Netball WA, the Gold Industry Group (GIG), the Carnival saw more than 2,500 netballers and their families take part, with teams travelling from across the State to proudly represent their communities.
The Gold Industry Group are the new naming rights partner of the State Netball Centre; with Netball WA announcing the world-class, netball-first venue will now be known as the Gold Netball Centre.
Sport and Recreation Minister, the Hon. Mick Murray MLA, alongside VenuesWest CEO David Etherton, Netball WA CEO Simon Taylor and GIG Vice Chairperson Kelly Carter unveiled the first of the new signage installed.
Netball in Western Australia and the Gold Industry Group have celebrated the first three months of a fruitful partnership this week.
The partnership has impacted the more than 230,000 netball participants around the State, particularly in WA’s regional areas through the roll out of the Regional Office Structure, which has been made sustainable through the partnership.
The Gold Industry Group is thrilled to further its support of netball, joining its grassroots program, Suncorp NetSetGO, as the Associate Partner in Western Australia.
To celebrate the announcement, we are offering all West Australian Suncorp NetSetGO participants the opportunity to attend West Coast Fever’s home game against the NSW Swifts via a two-for-one ticket deal.
