What is NetSetGo? Woolworths NetSetGo is Netball Australia's leading junior entry netball program. It provides children from 5 to 10 years with a positive introduction to netball, incorporating skill activities, minor games and modified matches. The Essendon Netball Club program incorporates activities to enhance player’s netball skills and an understanding of the game in a fun and safe environment. The SET & GO tiers put those skills into practice in a modified rules game on Saturdays. Essendon Netball Club were crowned the NetSetGo Centre Of The Year 2023 by Netball Victoria. We run one of the largest NetSetGo programs in North West Melbourne. We currently have 105 kids enrolled in our Set & Go programs that run at Parkville and Riverside every Saturday.
