PROGRAM OVERVIEW

The SASI Netball Program aims to provide support, resources and a clear development pathway for athletes to progress to an elite level and National Team representation. The Program provides quality international standard coaching and management, sports science (including strength and conditioning), video analysis, sports psychology, sports medicine services and access to range of facilities.

The SASI Netball program provides Associate Scholarships for players who have been identified for development in the 14-17 age group. The 2008 recipients will be notified in February.

The program was restructured 3 years ago. The age of the scholarship holders was raised and the program now participates in the State League competition, the premier netball competition in the state. The girls are selected from all netball competitions in the state, including teams already participating in the state league. The program also supports, to a lesser extent, the SA Sparrows - players aged 14 - 16 years, who play in a more senior summer competition. This team previously played as a SASI squad, but it now administered by the SA Netball Association (SANA) as an underpinning program.

NATIONAL TRAINING CENTRE PROGRAM

The SASI Netball Program is a partnership program funded and supported by the South Australian government through SASI in partnership with both National and State Sporting Organisation. A key partner in the program is Netball Australia who contributes funding support to the program as part of its National High Performance Plan. The NTC endorsement of the program recognises the status of the program in the sports National High Performance Pathway and also the indirect funding contribution to the SASI program by the Australian Sports Commission through Netball Australia.
