England Netball is committed to an innovative and progressive strategy ‘Your Game Your Way’ where the participant is at the heart of everything England Netball does.
This strategy is transforming the sport, enabling growth, retention and a smooth transition through the different stages of a participant’s journey with the game, whether casual players or elite athletes. It has already resulted in over 180,000 women participating in netball on a weekly basis, with England Netball membership exceeding 100,000 for the first time in 2016/17.
England Netball is about to embark on the next stage of its progression, having moved to a new Head Office at Loughborough SportPark. It is challenging itself to become commercially sustainable, whilst continuing to facilitate growth in participation, increasing the sports profile and succeeding at the elite level.
England Netball is now seeking nominations from its members to serve on the Board fulfilling a casual vacancy until September 2018. As a Non-Executive Director, you will help cement England Netball’s position as a top-performing NGB, driving the ‘Your Game Your Way’ strategy and ensure that the elite squad is equipped to win the Netball World Cup on home soil in 2019.
