Tingara Netball Club is a not-for-profit sporting organisation. The Committee members, coaches and managers are all volunteers. Our club colours are black and white. We train at Brentwood Primary school and compete in the Fremantle Netball Association (FNA) competition at Gibson Park on Saturdays from May to September. Tingara is represented across a wide range of ages, with teams competing from Novice Nippers through to Seniors. All players are graded prior to commencement of competition. In 2010, we registered 252 players over 28 teams.

Over the past 40 years, the Tingara Netball Club has become one of the leading clubs in the FNA. The club’s name was taken from the HMAS Leeuwin training centre called "Tingara", situated in Bicton. In turn, the name Tingara at HMAS Leeuwin was taken from the name of the Australian navy's first training ship (in 1912) called "Tingira", which is an Aboriginal word for "open sea".

Back in 1969 (the founding year of the club), we were called Tingara Women’s Basketball Club. We took on our current name in March 1972. The Club’s colours have always been black and white. For the fashion conscious readers, our first uniform was a shift with an inverted pleat made from 1 cm black and white gingham. The wide sailor collar was white with black bias binding. Skirt length had to be 25 cms from the ground when kneeling, which was checked on grading day by an official using a wooden ruler. Black bloomers, white socks and black sandshoes completed the outfit. Interestingly, players were fined 20 cents for not wearing correct uniform or playing without a number.

The Club was formed in 1969 by Shirley Sutherland and Val Booth and the following year saw the first year of competition. Our inaugural president was Shirley Sutherland, then in 1972 the position was taken up by Shirley Parker who then went on to serve as president for 15 years and is still Tingara's longest serving president. Tingara's original player registration was 71 girls, including Linley Fee (nee Head), who to this day maintains an association with the Club.In 2001, the uniform was changed to the current style. Since the 1970's, training has been held at Brentwood Primary School.

The Club has a proud tradition of producing State representatives. Anne Fisher (nee Lawson), was in the state Under 17 team in 1980 and continued to compete in various state teams. Anne also captained the State Senior team in 1987/88. Helen Miller represented the WA State Girls team in 1984.

Important dates in the Club's history are highlighted below:

• 1971 the training was at the basketball courts at Karoonda Oval for both seniors and juniors.
• 1972 saw training moved to Mount Pleasant Primary school before moving to its current location.
• 1977 saw lights being installed at Brentwood Primary School and Tingara was then given priority use of the courts.
• 1988 Melville City Council approached the club for a contribution to a time capsule. The Club supplied photos and team information.
• 1989 the Club became incorporated thanks to a huge effort from Penny Lindley.
• 2009 the Club launched its website www.tingaranetball.com.au and introduced its vision ‘Achievement with Integrity’
• 2011 the Club adopted a new modern constitution and a new, more comprehensive website format
