Bench Officials programme
Bench officials are the personnel who are responsible for the official scoring and timing for netball games. There are commonly five required to run a game. Netball Counties Manukau Region currently has a group of Netball NZ accredited bench officials who have had experience at World Champs, Perry Foundation Netball Champs and ANZ Championship matches.

The Region runs a training programme for bench officials each year. This programme is open to volunteers who would like to get involved in this part of the game. The role requires accuracy with figures, attention to detail, excellent concentration and a calm manner.
