Just starting out? Back to Netball is a great place to start
Re-discover your love of netball or try it out for the first time in a fun, friendly and non-competitive environment.
This 10-week programme will reintroduce you to netball in a supportive way, whether you have not played for years or perhaps it is your first experience.
Participants receive a warm welcome without expectations to commit. Sessions are progressive and trained coaches will guide you through the basics. Each session contains skill-based activity and fun game play.

Walking Netball – the same game but at a slower pace
The same game we all love, but at a walking pace and without jumping.
Walking Netball is a friendly and inclusive programme, allowing women the opportunity to find their place in the sport. Brought to you by a specially trained Walking Netball Host, the physical and mental benefits are endless, you’ll be supported and welcomed every step of the way.
Usually held indoors, there are over 200 programmes running across the country all year round. Since its inception, more than 37,000 women have gotten involved in their local communities and made new friends while enjoying the game.
You can pay and play for a single session and see how you like it – no long-term commitment is required.
If you just love match play, Netball Now is for you
Netball Now is flexible, energetic and relaxed. It’s a simple way to turn up and get some match play.
There will be time for you to warm up before you hit the court and during the session you will be able to try various playing positions and, in some cases, even have a go at umpiring.
At the end of the session, we will also give you time to cool down to prevent any aches and pains from kicking in.
It is important to know that there is no coaching at these sessions. If you do want to be coached, you might want to try your local club or a Back to Netball session.
Ready to be part of a local netball club?
There are nearly 3,000 netball clubs across England, meaning there’s always plenty of opportunity to get out and play.
Whether you want to play competitively, learn from top coaches or make new friends, you will be sure to find the right club for you.
You can use our club finder to find a club in your local area, then use the contact details shared on there.
Other ways to get involved!
Game makers extend way beyond the players themselves. Netball needs officials, umpires, volunteers, coaches and all-round supporters of the sport!

Got young ones who would like to try out some netball?
Our Bee Netball programme is the perfect friendly, high-energy space for your children to be introduced to netball and have loads of fun!
Aimed 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.
