We are incredibly proud of Steering Committee member, Susan Bamford, who was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in the 2026 King's Honours List for service to netball last week.

Congratulations Susan, this award is well and truly deserved considering the number of hours (and years) you have given to the game of netball.
