The 2021 Khomas netball season will kick off this weekend following an agreement by stakeholders at the region’s annual general meeting (AGM).

The Khomas Netball Federation announced that the name of the league has changed to Khomas Netball Super 10.

“What used to be the Premier League in Khomas now becomes Khomas Super 10 Netball. The first and second divisions remain the same,” officials announced yesterday.

It was also announced that relegation zones in the Super 10 and first division will remain positions nine and 10, irrespective of the number of teams registered with only a maximum of 10 team per division except for the second division which is unlimited and has no relegation.

First and second positions will automatically be promoted to the higher division.

The clubs who fail to register for the season will automatically forfeit all matches and fall in the relegation zone.

“Please note change of games or postponement due to unavailability will results in game being scheduled during the week and/or towards the end of the season.”

Competition rules

The league officials noted that no premier league player will be allowed to play in the Khomas League.

All teams are entitled to three fixed dates which are submitted prior to the season and during the season and a team may only ask for postponement twice.

“If all dates have been depleted only national duty may be a reason to postpone or reschedule a game.

“New players should be registered no later than Wednesday at 12:00. Team must be accompanied by team return and player cards, if not the team will not be allowed to take the court,” officials added.

Teams have been asked to submit their player cards on or before Thursday, 15 April. Player cards cost N$25 per printout.
