What is Bee Netball?
Bee Netball is friendly, high-energy and carefully designed for children.
Bee Netball is England Netball’s fun and nurturing programme for children (aged 5-11-year-olds) at the beginning of their team sport journey. It is designed to introduce children to netball skills: throwing, catching, footwork and shooting.
More importantly, the programme is designed to support every child’s personal development on and beyond the court. All activities are underpinned by our Beeliefs; our core values are focused on improving your child’s belief in their own ability.
Any club with members aged 5 – 11 is able to deliver Bee Netball, it’s simply a child first, small sided approach to both learning and playing the game.
