Calling all talented young netballers – applications now open for Blue & Gold Academy Development Centres for 2020-21

Talented young netballers across the South West of England are being invited to apply for trials with the Team Bath Netball Academy Development Centres (ADC) for the 2020-21 season.

Nearly 200 netballers aged between 14 and 21 benefit from top-class coaching plus lifestyle and sports science support at the ADCs, which are based in each county of the South West region.

Training locations are currently at the Team Bath Sports Training Village, SGS College in Bristol, Truro & Penwith College in Cornwall, University of Exeter in Devon, Bryanston School in Dorset, Hartpury in Gloucestershire and Millfield School in Somerset.

Returning and aspiring new players who are starting School Years 10, 11, 12 or 13 in September can now begin the application process for the forthcoming season. Successful applicants will be invited to attend screening by the end of August, with trials currently planned to run at the end of September 2020 should circumstances allow.

Pre-screening forms must be completed by Wednesday, August 19th and can be found, along with further information, at netball.teambath.com/futures-pathway.

Team Bath Netball is supported by its Principal Partner, Haines Watts, who are also a pathway partner, and by Rengen Developments and Centurion Chartered Financial Planners.
