About us
Our club's journey began with a bunch of netball loving expats, determined to set up the first club in The Netherlands
They decided to set up a netball club in Amsterdam in 2014 - ANC was born and we haven't looked back since!
ANC now has more than 60 regular members from all over the world. We regularly play social netball matches and host focused training sessions to develop players’ skills. We also compete in international tournaments with like-minded clubs all over Europe! Often finishing in the top three, we think ANC are ones to watch on the amateur European netball scene.
Our mission is to:
Offer a friendly, safe and inclusive environment to all our members
Encourage members to grow and evolve their netball skills
Develop netball in the Netherlands by setting up a national league
Unite fellow amateur European netball clubs and encourage the growth of netball in Europe by hosting an annual international tournament
Have as much fun as humanly possible
Meet the board
ANC is run by a board of volunteers, who are elected every three years and are all also members of the club.
President
Victoria Hobdale
To see how far the club has come in that time is amazing. We are now heralded as the largest amateur club on mainland Europe! It's a friendly mixed ability club where everyone whatever level is respected and that really makes us special. It's my honor to be president of such an amazing club that also brings so much joy to so many people.
Fun fact! Victoria volunteers at her local cat shelter every Sunday
Treasurer
Mack Moosa
I do everything finance related like our budget, looking at the tournament, fees for the year etc. I also look at memberships and like to make sure everyone feels welcome at the club. Amsterdam netball was such a changing point in my move to Amsterdam. It made me meet amazing friends that i still have after being nearly 6 years here. It was instrumental in me loving my time being here.
Fun fact! Mack is a cat and dog dad to his two boys Albus and Alex.
