Netball Academy Training

14 September 2008 saw the start of the County Netball Academy which caters for players aged 14-17 who have been previously selected. They will train twice a month for a period of 10 months. Each session will be two hours duration. Total of 40 hours.

The content of the programme is based on the England Netball Performance standards and encompasses skill level, positional play, nutrition, fitness, lifestyle management, mental toughness and goal setting. At all times the essence of the programme is quality and consistency.

Players will be expected to keep a training log and follow a fitness programme.  Here they take part in S A Q training and its not easy and a lot of hard work!

Regular updates will be provided on our website relating to the progress of our County Academy players, so please continue to visit our netball pages.
