Recently established as a Club in 2026, Kulcha Netball Club originated from a single U15 Junior Netball team, which soon became more than a place to play for our players - it quickly evolved into a community built on strong relationships, shared values, and collective growth. Through this shared vision we now provide safe, inclusive spaces where players of all ages and abilities can develop confidence, skills, and lifelong connections.
We believe netball has the power to shape leaders, strengthen whānau, and bring people together and we are committed to the continued growth and development of our Wyndham netball community.

On behalf of Kulcha Manawa Netball Club, I warmly welcome you to our whānau.
Kulcha was created with a simple but powerful vision - to build a club where people feel seen, supported, and proud of who they are. Netball is our vehicle, but connection, culture, and community are our purpose.
As President, I am incredibly proud of the environment we are growing together. From our youngest tamariki to our senior players, coaches, volunteers, and families, Kulcha is a place where everyone belongs and everyone matters.
We are committed to doing things the right way - with care, integrity, and heart. As we continue to grow, we remain grounded in our values and focused on creating opportunities for our members to thrive both on and off the court.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us.
This is Kulcha - and we’re just getting started!
