Capability

In our Capability section, you will find information on topics from Member Protection, Volunteer Resources, Operations and more. These documents are designed to assist you in running your Club or Association smoothly.

Governance

Governance in Associations and Clubs is all about setting clear rules, responsibilities, and direction so your organisation can operate smoothly and sustainably. Strong governance ensures everyone understands how decisions are made, what processes to follow, and how your club or association plans for the future. This section covers the essentials of constitutions, policies and procedures, management committees, and strategic planning, giving you the tools to run your organisation effectively and confidently.

Member Protection

Keeping Children Safe in Netball - At Netball Queensland, every child and young person has the right to feel safe, respected, and included. We follow national standards, policies, and best practice to ensure a child-safe environment for players, volunteers, and families.

Volunteers

Volunteers are the backbone of every netball Association and Club. Effective volunteer management helps you attract, support, and retain the people who make your programs possible—coaches, committee members, umpires, managers, and game-day helpers. This section provides practical tools to help you understand your volunteer needs, welcome new volunteers, recognise their contributions, and maintain a positive and organised volunteer experience. You’ll also find links to trusted resources, including the Queensland Government’s guidance on volunteer management, attraction strategies, and workplace health and safety.

Association / Club Operations

Association Operations covers the day-to-day processes that help committees function smoothly, make informed decisions, and create a positive, productive environment. Effective operations support good governance, reduce conflict, and ensure everyone understands their responsibilities. This section provides guidance on committee position descriptions, how to stay organised, run effective meetings, manage conflict, make decisions, and build a strong, connected committee culture. It also includes practical tools for budgeting and defining clear roles to keep your Association running efficiently and confidently.

Training & Education

Within the Training & Education section there is information to help train you in different areas. From knowing relevant mental health service and handling sideline behaviours to general information shared at our annual Leaders Conference.
