Then-President, Julie Langham wrote to the South Australian Netball Association (now Netball South Australia) and asked the question, “What were the pre-requisites required to apply for the State League competition?”
Surprisingly, no such document existed. It was in 1999 when a chance phone call between the former Secretary’s of Blackwood Netball Club and Panthers Netball Club saw the beginnings of a new powerhouse netball club in the Southern Adelaide region. Woods Panthers Netball Club was officially born. After a successful decade in the red, green and white, change was afoot for Woods Panthers. An exciting new chapter for netball in the Southern region started, with Woods Panthers joining forces with South Adelaide Football Club under a new strategic partnership for 2021 onwards. This partnership would see the club reborn in the famous blue and white of South Adelaide. South Adelaide Football Club Chief Executive Officer, Neill Sharpe said, “this is an exciting new chapter for South Adelaide and provides the opportunity for us to further enhance our community base and establish an elite sporting pathway for both football and netball throughout the Southern region.”
In 2023, South Adelaide Netball Club expanded again and welcomed the club’s first ever men’s team who would represent the club in the inaugural Super League competition.
