Who Are We?
Caulfield and District Netball Association (CDNA) was created to provide and facilitate a competition for domestic netball teams at the Duncan Mackinnon Reserve, on the corner of Murrumbeena and North Roads, Murrumbeena.
CDNA consists of a volunteer committee and several part-time staff who work together to deliver the competition each week, as well as provide a canteen service to players and families during game time.
CDNA also select, coach and manage a number of Representative (Rep) teams to compete against Rep teams from other associations at a higher level of competition.
In addition, CDNA host an annual Tournament, assist with inter-school competitions that are held at the courts, host and run a NetSetGO program for young players and work continually to develop umpires.
Our History
In the 1980s, local netball clubs played under the South Eastern Metropolitan Churches Netball Association (SEMCNA), with teams from Glen Iris, Sandringham, Caulfield South, and Kooyong Road Methodists. Games were held at schools and churches before moving to Dales Park and St Peters in Bentleigh.
CDNA was formed in 1992, named after the City of Caulfield. Led by founding President John Boorn, the Association started Saturday morning competitions with around 55 teams. By 2021, CDNA had grown to nearly 200 teams, also running Friday evening matches for the 11 & Under age group.
In 2015, a new pavilion with upgraded facilities opened at Duncan MacKinnon Reserve. CDNA’s admin office later moved from Moorleigh Community Village back to the reserve in 2022, following the completion of a new upstairs office, officially opened by Mayor Jim Magee during the Association’s 30th birthday celebrations.
With support from Sport and Recreation Victoria and Glen Eira City Council, two new courts were added in 2018. Today, CDNA continues to grow, supported by dedicated staff, volunteers, and the local council.
