History
[edit]Early years
[edit]In 1951, the all-white South African Women's Netball Association was established. In 1957, their president represented South Africa at the inaugural International Netball Conference in London. In 1960, South Africa were founder members of the International Federation of Netball Associations.[4][5]
Post apartheid era
[edit]In 1992, with the end sporting boycott during the apartheid era, Netball South Africa became the new governing body for netball in South Africa.[1] In 2000, the NSA was criticised by a Parliament of South Africa committee for being "too old and too white."[6]
