Netball is offered to all learners across the School. Weekly games are held during the winter season against other schools. Registration is open during Term 1, with some teams requiring trials. View more details on the regular season, see Auckland Netball.
Netball Pathway
Our goal is to provide a clear pathway for players at every year level, with opportunities to develop skills, build confidence and enjoy netball at their own pace.
Years 1 to 2: Discover and Enjoy: An introduction to netball through modified equipment, fundamental movement skills, teamwork and fun local fixtures.
Years 3 to 4: Learn and Explore: Players develop basic skills on a reduced court, using modified equipment and trying different positions to build confidence and experience.
Years 5 to 6: Develop and Apply: Players build technical skills and game understanding through 6-aside netball. Depending on numbers, both competitive and social options may be available. External umpires are introduced at this level.
Years 7 to 8: Challenge and Progress: Players transition to the full 7-aside game, developing tactical understanding and positional skills. Opportunities include winter league grading, Eastern Zones, AIMS Games and further player development.
Boys are welcome! Netball is for everyone! We encourage boys who are interested to give it a go. Netball develops agility, coordination, spatial awareness, footwork and decision-making, skills that transfer well to other sports, including basketball, touch and rippa rugby.

This year, we are excited to expand our sports programme to include coaching opportunities in Football, Rugby, Volleyball, Hockey, Basketball, and Netball. The cost for coaching will be approximately $70 to $100 per term, per sport, which works out to only $5 to $9 per session. Students are expected to commit to attending their weekly training session in their chosen sport. Support from parents with reminders is also greatly appreciated.
The sporting opportunities at Stonefields School provide all students with a variety of sports to participate in, develop skills and achieve personal success. We are constantly working to do this in an environment that has a healthy balance between participation and competition.
Stonefields school, along with 14 other local schools, comprises the Tamaki Cluster. There are several sports events each term which our learners have the opportunity to participate in. Each event is open to different ages, usually Years 5-8, but one event per term is extended to Years 3-4. Our Tamaki Cluster events welcome all skill levels from beginners to experienced. It's a great way to try a new sport so come sign up and give a new sport, or your favourite sport a try.
Our school is also part of the Eastern Zones Cluster. These events provide our Intermediate learners with the opportunity to compete at a more advanced level, against a wide range of schools in East Auckland, and can lead on to Auckland wide Inter-Zone Finals.
The Zespri AIMS Games is the largest sporting competiton in the country where Intermediate (Year 7-8) aged kids compete in individual and team events across 27 sporting codes. Over the last 3 years, Stonefields has participated in various codes including Netball, Football, Futsal, Badminton, Swimming, Rock Climbing, Tennis and Yachting.
When representing the school at sports events, learners are expected to wear the Stonefields Sports Uniform, which includes.
Sports Top
Sports shorts or skort
Netball dress (bespoke order)
Basketball singlet (bespoke order)
School Cap (highly encouraged)
Bike pants/Nike Pros are not acceptable for any sport
Items can be purchased through the online uniform shop. Limited second-hand stock is available via our Pre-Loved Uniform requests.
In 2026, we introduced a new sports uniform. There will be a phase-out period for the old sports shirt during which it is still acceptable to wear the old shirt. From 2027, the old sports shirt can no longer be worn.
This is the Code of Fair Play that our ākonga (learners) have created. It expresses what we value and what we expect when representing our school community at Sports Events.
Please ensure you familiarise yourself with these expectations. We are extremely proud of the way our ākonga conduct themselves when representing our school and thank you for your ongoing support in this area.
There are also loads of on-site after-school activities offered by external providers, including football, basketball, rippa rugby, and skateboarding. See our Community Noticeboard for more details.
We are fortunate to have a wealth of sports clubs in our local area delivering a variety of sports offerings. Check out our Local Clubs page for a list.
