The 2026 Tasmanian Netball League (TNL) season is set to tip off this weekend, bringing the state’s premier netball competition back to courts across Tasmania with renewed energy, emerging talent, and the same fierce rivalries.
Following a highly competitive 2025 season, teams have spent the off-season strengthening their line-ups, and developing their skills, fitness and game plans in preparation for what promises to be one of the most exciting seasons yet.
Netball Tasmania CEO Penny Shearer said the league continues to showcase the depth of talent and professionalism within the state.
“The Tasmanian Netball League represents the very best of our sport. The 2026 season highlights not only elite competition but also the strength of our pathways, our regional communities, and our commitment to growing the game across Tasmania.”
The 2026 season will feature 7 clubs and 14 teams competing across two divisions, 19&U and Opens, providing a clear pathway for athletes aspiring to represent Tasmania and beyond.
Fans can expect high-intensity matchups from the first round, with several blockbuster clashes scheduled throughout a two-day Opening Round event. After the success of this event in the 2025 season, it is back and bigger than ever. This year, taking in place at the Kingborough Sports Centre on the 21st and 22nd of February, supporters are encouraged to attend and experience Tasmania’s premier netball competition firsthand with all 7 clubs playing in the one location.
The 2026 season also see’s two additional double header events. Round fifteen and sixteen at the Silverdome will celebrate Pride round on the 23rd and 24th of May and twenty and twenty one of the twenty-one round season will acknowledge First Nations on the 27th and 28th of June.
Beyond the court, the TNL continues to play a vital role in community engagement, creating opportunities for coaches, umpires, volunteers, and young athletes throughout the state.
Thank you to our league partners HART Sport and Bennett's Petroleum for their continued support of the TNL.
TNL 26 will be livestreamed once again by KommunityTV with one match up per round shown live, and all matches of the double headers being streamed. For details on how to Livestream with KTV, please find instructions
