The Canadian national netball team is the national netball team of Canada.[1] Canada has both men's and women's national teams. Netball Canada is Canada's national governing body for the sport. The national team was first formed in the latter half of the 20th century.[when?]

Canada's national netball teams are selected through a trials process and compete on the world stage through the regional Americas Federation of Netball Associations (AFNA) competitions and qualifying tournaments to gain entry into the Commonwealth Games and the world netball championships called the Netball World Cup.[2] The Netball World Cup was previously called the "World Netball Championships" from 1963–2011.

Canada's best result in the world championships came in 1991 when they came 6th.[3] Canada's first netball win at the Commonwealth Games was in the Manchester 2002 Commonwealth Games when they beat Sri Lanka 52–49.[4] At the 2012 Americas Federation of Netball Associations (AFNA) Tournament in Trinidad and Tobago, the Canadian national team came 5th. [5] One of the top performances of the Canadian women's team was at the 2nd World Youth Netball Championship in 2008 when they came in third.

As of 2 December 2019, Canada was 32nd in the World Netball Rankings.[6] The team participates in the Netball World Cup, the international championship tournament for netball. This international tournament is considered the highest level of competition for the sport.
