The netball fraternity in Nelson Mandela Bay is optimistic that the hosting of the upcoming Netball World Cup next year, will be instrumental in developing the sport in the country.

The Nelson Mandela Bay Netball community awarded its top athletes at a glittering event in Gqeberha.

“We don’t have an office, we are all volunteers in the sport and in the ultimate, we would like to have an office so that netball is not run at the backdrop or from the boot of someone’s car”, says NMB Netball President Noluntu Dyubhele. Great strides have been made to improve the game, with the first-ever semi-professional netball league being formed in 2014. The league started with ten teams but has expanded to 13 teams this year. The Eastern Cape team competing in the second division of the league was crowned winners and gained promotion to the first division.
