Uniform

The GIANTS Netball Reserves, formerly the GIANTS Netball Academy and the Canberra GIANTS, are an Australian netball team that represents Netball New South Wales in the Super Netball Reserves competition. The GIANTS Reserves is the reserve team of Suncorp Super Netball club, GIANTS Netball. The team is made up of selected stand-out players from Netball NSW Premier League, GIANTS Netball training partners and some contracted GIANTS Netball players.

Under the Canberra GIANTS name, the team reached the 2018 Australian Netball League grand final, and finished runner-up.

History

Canberra Giants

In late 2016, Netball ACT, Netball New South Wales and GIANTS Netball formed a partnership in order to enter a team in the Australian Netball League. The Canberra GIANTS subsequently replaced Canberra Darters as Netball ACT's ANL franchise.[1][2] Between 2017 and 2019, Giants played in the ANL.[3][4][5] With a team captained by Taylah Davies and featuring Maddie Hay, Teigan O'Shannassy and Amy Parmenter, Giants reached the 2018 ANL grand final but lost to Tasmanian Magpies by 1 goal.[4][6][7][8][9]

GIANTS Netball Academy

In September 2019, it was announced that Netball ACT, Netball New South Wales and Giants Netball had ended their partnership, and that Netball ACT and Giants Netball would enter separate teams in the Australian Netball League from 2020. Netball New South Wales and GIANTS Netball subsequently launched the GIANTS Netball Academy.[1][2][10]

GIANTS Netball Reserves

To align with Netball Australia's rebranding of the Australian Netball Championships (ANC) to Super Netball Reserves in 2025, the GIANTS Netball Academy was rebranded to the GIANTS Netball Reserves. This new format of the competition ran alongside the Suncorp Super Netball season, with games taking place alongside the GIANTS games, usually pre- or post-SSN match at the same venue, or alternatively the day before or after an SSN match at a different venue.
