About Us

KEEPING THE LOCAL COMMUNITY ACTIVE

Parkside Netball Club is  focused on drawing together the local community, not only for sport, but also for social activities.

The Club draws players from many schools across the area – currently represented through kids from Fairfield Primary, St Anthony’s, Ivanhoe Primary, Alphington Primary, Wales Street Primary and Princes Hill Primary, Ivanhoe Girls Grammar, Northcote High School, Thornbury High School and Ivanhoe Grammar School. 

We strive to keep kids active and enjoying their netball, whilst learning new skills and making life-long friendships in the process. All players and parents/guardians are required to agree to our PNC Player/Parent Agreement, reinforcing this philosophy. 

Parkside Netball Club is entirely run by volunteers and we are extremely grateful to all those who donate their time to participate as coaches, team managers and committee members. All coaches have working with children checks.

For anyone who would like to get involved, please contact us.

For families new to the club, download your Welcome To PNC! guide to help you navigate the club.

Marc Storti Award for Club Spirit

The Marc Storti Award was created in memory of Marc Storti, a much-loved committee member of Parkside Netball Club and devoted dad to one of our players, who tragically passed away on Boxing Day 2017.

Marc arrived at Parkside knowing next to nothing about netball — but that never stopped him. He brought a sense of humour, infectious enthusiasm and a genuine "give it a go" attitude to everything he touched, saying yes to whatever committee role needed filling and always making it fun along the way. His passion for kids in sport, his genuine interest in his daughter's world, and the priority he gave Parkside amid a full, busy life — that's what we call Parkside Club Spirit.

Each year, this award recognises a member of the Parkside community — player, official, coach or team manager — who exemplifies that same spirit: a true team player who encourages and supports those around them.

Nominations are open all year from 1 February to 30 October 2026, with the winner announced at our annual Club Spirit event. Their name joins the perpetual trophy displayed proudly at Parkside Sporting Club.
