World Netball, Netball Australia continue pursuit for Olympic inclusion

Date: Mar 12, 2025

World Netball (WN) and Netball Australia (NA) met with Brisbane 2032 this week as they continue their pursuit for netball's inclusion in the Olympics.

WN Chief Executive Office (CEO) Fiona Harold, along with NA CEO Stacey West and NA President Liz Ellis AO, met virtually with Brisbane 2032 CEO Cindy Hook and Director of Sport Brendan Keane.  

The five leaders actively engaged in discussions regarding the potential inclusion of netball in the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games.

Harold stated that following World Netball’s commissioning of a feasibility study and consulting multiple stakeholders to ensure that bidding for inclusion in the Brisbane 2032 Olympic Games is in the best interests of the sport, meeting with Cindy and Brendan to understand the potential of netball's inclusion in the Games was a hugely important next step for them.  

WN and NA are also continuing to have conversations with the International Olympic Committee and the Australian Olympic Committee.
