takes gold
in
first ever Israel Netball League!
Introducing a new sport into any country is an uphill battle and in Israel, netball is still virtually unknown. Those who play are mainly ex-pats who brought their love of this sport with them to Israel. And yet, despite the complete lack of local recognition and resources, few sports in few countries can equal Israel Netball's achievements, especially within such a relatively short period of time.
Today, Israel Netball can boast of senior and junior representation in a number of international events, culminating in Israel Netball's first international win in Ireland in June 2008, and two subsequent wins at the second European netball Festival held in Malta in June 2010. Moreover, Israel Netball is an associate member of the International Federation of Netball Associations (IFNA) and an associate member of the Federation of European Netball Associations (FENA).
The number of players continues to grow in various locations around the country, and Israel Netball looks forward to an increasingly exciting future. All of Israel Netball's successes can be attributed to the dedication and commitment of every single one of our players, led by Jodi Carreira who initiated and continues to be the driving force behind the sport in Israel.
