The deadline for registration is August 16th, 2024.

U14 - Unfortunately our U14 squads are full therefore we are not trialling for these in August. We have a Club Waiting List which you can add your child to if you wish.

Age criteria
U12 - 9,10 or 11 yrs old on 31 December 2024
U16 - 14 or 15 on 31 December 2024 (we may consider 13 yr olds in this group depending on netball experience)
U18 - 16 or 17 on 31 December 2024 (we may consider 15 yr olds in this group depending on netball experience)
You'll note our U12 trials are over several weeks - we're hopeful our U12 triallists will be able to come to all the trial dates to give our coaches plenty of time to observe them in drills/gameplay in a more relaxed environment than a one off trial. However, we do realise that girls may also be trialling for other clubs in August and may need a decision before our trials end. If this is the case please contact us at this email address and we will make a decision based on the sessions your daughter has been able to attend.
Our U16 and U18 trials will comprise of two rounds for each of the two age groups, on the above dates. Triallists will be informed if they have been selected to continue to the second round, and the final selections will be made shortly after the second trial.
If your daughter cannot attend any of their trial dates please still fill in the form and we will try our best to find another date for her to be seen.
There may be a small charge per trial session to cover some of our costs of venue hire etc - we will let you know this before the trial.
