"Have a go at Netball"









Walsall's New Deal Sports Development Team is working with Walsall Council to organise netball playing and training opportunities for young ladies and women aged 16+.

Netball is a highly paced game of skill and accuracy, which will help you get fit in a fun, game based environment, much better than spending hours on your own at the gym!

If you haven't played since school you will find there is quite a difference in the netball you played there and the way the sport is played in the adult league. The aim of these sessions is to reintroduce you to the sport, whilst developing your basic fitness and tactical ability.

Beth Alvey, New Deals Sports Development officer said; "The sessions are designed so that participants will learn to play in a fun, friendly and supportive atmosphere. We aim to help the players to 'bridge the gap' so that they will feel confident about going along to a club, or even forming your own!"

The sessions will be indoors on Thursday 6.15 - 7.15pm until March at the Croft Primary School, Croft Road, and when the light and weather gets better, they will then return to the netball courts at Leamore Park.

Sessions cost £2.50 per session, come along and join us.
