  8.

The Executive ratifies final team lists. • The National Coach for the S A Spar Protea team sits in all selection meetings/sessions for guidance and advice to selectors on the type of players with potential to be in the senior team; while other coaches for the junior national teams sit in selection meetings/sessions when selection of players into teams under their care are conducted. • National Championships, the National Netball League and the Merit Tournament are the main platforms used for selection of players into squads. • S A Games, SASSU and S A Schools Netball also provide other platforms for selection of players. • The Selection policy clearly outlines the required level of competence of any individual appointed as a selector and type of players to be selected.
