What Netball Teaches You

Research shows that team sports, such as netball, bring a sense of belonging, life satisfaction and wellbeing, more so that individual sports. Many of us have fond memories of playing netball at school, where many girls first experience playing netball. According to England Netball, netball is currently the fasted growing female sport in England. What's more to love about the sport is that it builds friendships and promotes inclusion, fair playing and playing together. It doesn't matter how good children are, it's how hard they try.

Which all makes us even more thrilled that netball weekends will be returning to Kingswood Grosvenor Hall activity centre in 2025 in partnership with Future Ball Stars. Find further info about our netball and experiential adventure programme and dates, here
