DADA Program
The Develop A Diamond Academy is a national program held in every State as the pathway to the 15&under State Team and National Championships.
In Tasmania there are 8 Academies each with 14 players. Academies are selected in October/November. Academies have a training period from February to April and then finishes with a one day netball carnival where all eight Academies take part in match play. From this a squad of roughly 30 people train at an overnight camp where the state squad is selected. The state team compete at the 15/U School Sport Netball Championships against the rest of the country.
Congratulations to the 28 players that have achieved selection to the Develop A Diamond Academy for 2016. Competition for places was intense with a total of 57 players attending over three rounds of selections to make the final squad. STNA would like to thank the umpires and coaches that assisted with the selections.
