HAILSHAM Netball Club; Juniors, recently participated in its first-ever competitive league match within Eastbourne Netball League’s newly formed Junior Division.
The U12’s ‘Avengers’ team is building all the time and going from strength to strength within their group – taking on board all of the training elements and technical focus points.
Hailsham Netball Club, established in 2022, introduced the Junior Club section in November 2023, and already in just seven months, their player development has been excellent and the girls are constantly improving.
A spokesperson said: “Our priority is focused on player development, whilst creating a culture of inclusion, encouragement, support and above all else, fun. Our girls have fully embraced our culture with support from our wonderful parents, club coaches and committee.
We have ambitions to continue to grow our Junior Club – currently ranging from U12-U16 – with goals to create a County and Regional Level playing standard for those players wishing to progress.
We also have intentions to create an U19 playing group that can the filter into our Adult Club for those players wishing to stay with netball after Junior level.”
Its Adult Club has already seen huge success in its first two years, with a Division 5 and Division 2 win and promotions in the first season; followed by a Division 1 and Division 4 win and promotion in the second season.
Both Adult and Junior Clubs are led by Head Coach Kirsty Burrage, who has over five years of Coaching experience, along with over two years of Regional Level Coaching experience.
