Netball presentation night awards ideas

Which awards to give, how to keep it affordable, and wording that suits netball clubs of every size.

Recognise every team

Netball clubs often have many teams across many grades, so presentation night needs a plan that recognises every player without blowing the budget. A common approach is a medal or small trophy for every player, with larger trophies for the major awards in each team.

Awards netball clubs commonly give

  • Player of the year
  • Best defence and best attack
  • Most improved
  • Best team player
  • Coach's award
  • Umpire's award, and a thank you for volunteer umpires
  • Club person of the year
  • Premiers and runners up

Trophies and medals

Medals suit every player and the finalist teams. Trophies and cups suit the player awards and club person awards. See our netball trophies and medals.

Wording ideas

  • Player of the Year, [Team], [Season], [Name]
  • Best Defender, [Grade], [Year], [Name]
  • Coach's Award, [Name], For Outstanding Commitment
  • Thank You Umpire, [Name], [Season]

Ordering tips

Send one list of teams and names to avoid mistakes, and order early. End of season is our busiest time, and trophies usually need up to two weeks. Our presentation night checklist gives a simple countdown.
