About MCNC
Our Club
MCNC is a community, not-for-profit netball club who plays competitively in the Stonnington City Netball Association (SCNA) competition, enabling our players to play netball and develop their skills in a fun, safe and equitable environment. We welcome all children from year 2 to learn, develop and compete with the club.
Our Mission
To provide past and present Malvern Central School students as well as students/families within the local community with the opportunity to develop skills, knowledge and a love for the game of netball.
Our Teams
NetSetGo is the entry program for girls and boys and provides children, of all abilities, with a positive introduction to netball, teaching them basic skills and rules of the sport. MCNC runs this program for Year 2 students.
MCNC teams play in the Stonnington City Netball Association (SCNA) Junior Competition fielding teams in all age groups.

State of Play
The club began in 2013 with the introduction of the NetSetGo program to an enthusiastic group of Year 2’s.
The NetSetGo program has continued each year since then and resulted in every year level from Year 2 onward’s producing netball teams that compete in the Stonnington City Netball Association Junior competition.
Even after leaving Malvern Central School, most players continue to play for MCNC, enabling the club to field teams right up to the Under 17 competition.
