A blockbuster round one is highlighted by the grand final rematch, where Heathcote will attempt to get a measure of revenge against Mount Pleasant, who'll be expected to unfurl their 2023 premiership flag.
In the first of two-night matches across the opening fortnight, Colbinabbin will welcome Elmore.
The following week, White Hills hosts the Blues on Saturday night.
The Demons and Grasshoppers will resume their storied netball rivalry in round four after the Red and Blacks triumph this season.
After a straight sets exit in the netball in 2023 Elmore faces the Grasshoppers and North Bendigo in its opening fortnight.
We will have to wait until round six for the Bloods to face traditional netball rivals White Hills.
North Bendigo has the bye-round one and will begin their season on April 13.
