HistoryNetball SA was originally known as South Australia’s Women’s Basketball Association (SAWBA) and was formed in 1928. Records from newspaper clippings show that the first State A1 Premiers were the YWCA. The year was 1922, four years before the first recorded interstate match and six years prior to the first official All Australia Carnival. The first recorded Interstate Carnival was held in Sydney and NSW was the winner. It was after this carnival that a move to form the All Australia Women’s Basketball Association was made. The inaugural meeting took place in 1927 where a Chairman, Honorary Secretary and two delegates from each of the five State organisations formed a Council. A uniform set of rules was established and the first official All Australia Carnival was organized in 1928. The All Australia Women’s Basketball Association came into being with foundation members of State Associations from New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Victoria and Western Australia. Western Australia competed at the 1929 Carnival but did not reaffiliate or compete again until 1939, and Tasmania affiliated and competed from 1933 onwards. Current organisationNetball SA today is an affiliated member of Netball Australia and comprises over 30,000 players who are directly linked to clubs and associations affiliated with Netball SA. Netball SA provides South Australians with the opportunity to participate in the game of netball from junior levels to elite competition through its Member Associations. Netball SA is committed to ensuring netball in South Australia achieves consistent success, a strong and positive public profile and continuing player and spectator support at all levels. Netball SA is governed by Board of Management, the current board is made up of Netball SA CEO Stephanie Greene, President Graeme Gilbert, Alex Howieson,former Australian Netball player Jennifer Borlase, Mayor of Playford Council Glenn Docherty, Lynda Matthews, Marlene Elliott, Susan Comerford and Tanya Denning who meet monthly respectively. The Netball SA Board is chosen by "The Council" which is made up of representatives from 35 Member Associations across the state and two foundation divisions (Adelaide Metropolitan and City Night). The Netball Council meets quarterly. Press clippings– From Edwards Park to ETSA Park
