An Important Final Point
Member registration and the associated fees demonstrate to funding bodies that an organization is viable and worthy of funding support for programs.
A strong provincial organization is better able to support its members, both individual and club, by developing and implementing programming that benefits all members in the long term. NBO is entirely volunteer-run and we're always looking for volunteers to help us develop the sport. If you are interested in volunteering with NBO, please email info@netballontario.com.
