Metro League
“New venue, New night, Longer Matches!”
The re-vamped Metro League is moving to Tuesday nights at the amazing new $45 million Queensland State Netball Centre, Nathan (right next to Sandstorm). The game format has been extended to 10 minute warm-up and 60 minute games, with a revised cost of $72 per team per game. This will be the only air-conditioned Indoor Volleyball competition over Summer this year!

We will have an expanded capacity of four courts for our upcoming extended “Winter League” that will run for 22 weeks. This will be followed by our “Summer League” which will be air-conditioned and operate on up to 7 courts from 15 October 2019 to 25 February 2019 with a three week break over the Christmas and New Year holiday period (24/12, 31/12 and 7/1).
