Netball
Rautāwhiri Netball is a sport that punches above its weight. We have had many successful Senior and Junior Prem teams that have performed well in local, regional, national and international tournaments, with many students going on to make representative teams at all levels too. Netball Academy offers a pathway to those who wish to take their skills and netball ‘know how’ to the next level. We are the current Waikato/BOP SS Champions in 2025.
