The Queensland Suns would like to partner with regional Netball Queensland affiliations, enabling a mutually supportive relationship to nurture greater participation and pathways for male players in regional Queensland.  

We seek to unlock the potential of Men's and Mixed Netball in Queensland by creating pathways for all individuals from grassroots to high performance. 

In 2022, we piloted an innovative delivery model to regional Queensland, to enable the Queensland Suns to create and embrace an inclusive and professional environment that will underpin our collective future growth.

We seek your assistance and partnership to support regional representation at the 2023 Australian Men’s and Mixed Netball Association’s National Champions.

​
