WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT IN 2023?


SMOG Netball Club prides itself upon being a FUN, INCLUSIVE, ACTIVE, VIBRANT, COMPETITIVE club where we welcome members from all walks of life.  Behind the scenes in the engine room, we have a core group of volunteers who work hard to provide our teams a memorable netball season where they walk away at the end of it, excited about coming back the next season.


A club as big as ours, requires significant financial resources to keep it running and we are lucky to have funding sources to tap into that kindly help us provide our members with a netball season that caters for not just those who simply want to play, but also for those who play to keep active but equally enjoy the social activities our club has to offer.


Off the court we have annual activities that include: 


  • Quiz Night 
  • Prizegiving 
  • Social nights 
  • Fitness nights with our partners Elevate Plus
  • Fundraising activities


In early 2020, we became the only Wellington netball club to become affiliated into Toitu Poneke (The Hub) and this is a relationship we value immensely. We look upon Toitu Poneke (The Hub) as the 'Home of SMOG Netball' and we regard these premises as our own clubrooms.  In 2023 most of our social and fundraising events will be held here, and the use of all facilities are at our disposal upon request.  In addition, as these premises are shared with Poneke Rugby Club during the Winter season, each Saturday we will be encouraging all our teams to pop down to Toitu Poneke (The Hub) so we can integrate club activities together to make the season even more fun and entertaining!


In 2023, our Club Captain is Emily Black, who is a member of both the Executive Board and the SMOG Committee, which undertakes the operational administration of the club. 


The Executive take on a governance role to ensure the club is well managed, escalations addressed quickly, code of conduct policies are adhered to, and the voice of our members are ‘heard’ particularly where improvements can be made.  Don’t be surprised if you see them on the side-lines of your games no matter what grade you are!​​​​​​​
