What we do

Six ways to get on court.

Or near it: you can umpire, walk, or just come for the chips. Every price is here, and the first session is free.

The club

What we do.

Back to netball

For people who last played at school, or never did. One hour on Tuesdays, £4 a session, the first free, and nobody keeps score.

£4 a session, pay on the night.

League teams

Two teams in the valleys league, training on Wednesdays and playing on Thursdays. £12 a month and £3 a match. Places go on effort as well as skill.

£12 a month, plus £3 a match towards court and umpire.

Juniors

Hatchlings from seven on Saturdays, Young Vipers and Senior Juniors on Mondays. £3 a session, DBS-checked coaches, and a named welfare officer.

£3 a session, pay by the half-term if you prefer.

Walking netball

All the passing and all the arguments, with no running or jumping. Thursday at 11am, £3 with a cup of tea. Knees very welcome.

£3 a session, tea and biscuits included.

Umpire training

A six-week Saturday course for your first umpire award, with a mentor beside you at junior games. £35, refunded after ten club games.

£35 for the six-week course, refunded after you have umpired ten club matches.

Club socials

Chips after Tuesdays, a Christmas do, a summer tournament with silly rules, and a quiz that gets out of hand. Everyone is welcome, players or not.

Free to come along: you pay for your own chips.

Questions about joining

Do I have to join anything to start?

No. Your first three sessions just cost the session price, and the first of those is free. After that, adults pay £20 a year to cover insurance.

Can I pay by card?

Yes, on the night, or by bank transfer for the subs.

What if I miss a few weeks?

Nothing happens. You pay when you come, and league subs can be paused if you are away for a month or more.

Do I need to buy a dress?

No. Back to netball is in whatever you like. League dresses are lent for a £10 deposit.

Can I try more than one thing?

Yes. Plenty of people do a Tuesday and a Thursday, or play and umpire.

Is there help if money is tight?

Yes, and it is quiet. Have a word with Grace. Nobody needs to give a reason.

Your first session is free. Bring trainers and some nerve.

You do not need to be fit, young or any good at all. Come along, try a bib on, and see who is laughing by the end of the warm-up. It is usually everyone.
