ABOUT US
Established since 1981 Townsville City Netball Association Incorporated (TCNAI) is a professionally operated and significantly sized sporting association that provides opportunities for individuals of all ages, skill levels, competetiveness and ambition to participate in a very enjoyable sport.
With a 21% increase in participation in 2023, netball was historically a female dominated sport that now expands opportunities for boys, mens and mixed netball pathways.
TCNAI offers Junior, Senior, Premier League, Social, Mixed and Walking Netball competitions. Programs available include Little Netty’s from age 3, NetSetGO from age 5, inclusive programs, and development for players, umpires, coaches and officials.
TCNAI hosted Netball Queensland’s largest participation event of 2023, Junior State Age. Over 220 teams participated (14 more than the same event hosted in Brisbane 2022) with approximately 6000 spectators attend the event each day. The event bought an estimated $9.3 million economic benefit to the wider Townsville community (University of Queensland study).
Townsville City Netball Association was awarded Community Organisation of The Year, Inclusion Award & finalist for NetSetGo Centre of the Year by Netball Queensland in 2023. Members of our Association have been recognised as Volunteer of the Year, Community Coach of the Year, Senior Coach of the Year and Netball Queensland Youth Advisory Committee Chair and Netball Queensland Board members.
The association currently has over 2250 members creating significant player and supporter foot traffic into our Association. Located in the thriving Murray Sports Precinct, TCNAI observes significant car and foot traffic around the majority of our facilitiy with high visibility.
With 20 hard courts and 2 grass, TCNAI is the largest netball facility outside of SEQ, and remains the only regional association eligible to host Netball Queensland’s major events (which require at least 20 courts)
