Netball Northern, Netball New Zealand and Auckland Council developed the Auckland Regional Netball Facility Plan in 2010 to identify the future netball facility needs for the Auckland Region. In 2015 the plan was updated to provide a refreshed view on demand and supply.

Netball is a growing sport in Auckland and it is critical that sufficient quality facilities are provided in a network across the Auckland region. These facilities must be sustainable and accessible to the region’s population of current and potential netball players.

The facility plan focuses on the current and future demand for netball within the Auckland region. The plan also considers changes in netball participation, the impact of the 2013 census data on the regions demographics and future population growth.
