Congress

 

World Netball Congress is the meeting of the Membership of World Netball.

It is an opportunity for the Membership to meet with the Board of Directors to review progress and determine the priorities for the next period. Elections for the Board directors also take place at Congress.

Ordinary meetings of Congress are held once every two years usually just before the Netball World Cup or Netball World Youth Cup.

The last World Netball Congress, in 2023, took place from the 26th – 27th July 2023 in Cape Town, ahead of the Netball World Cup 2023.

The World Netball Articles of Association outline the role of Congress.
