The Venue
Team Bath Netball play their home matches in the Team Bath Arena at the University of Bath Sports Training Village (STV). Click here to see a map.
Once you arrive at the Sports Training Village, our volunteers and the venue signs will show you where to go.
Arriving by car
Enter the University campus via Norwood Avenue (BA2 7BA) not Quarry Road. Follow the signs to East Car Park/Visitor Car Park. This is a pay & display car park but parking is free of charge after 6pm. Signs and/or volunteers will direct you to the main entrance of the STV.
Arriving by train or bus
The nearest rail station is Bath Spa, a five-minute taxi ride or 15-minute bus ride from the University. First Bus run their U1 service frequently (often every 10-15 minutes) from Dorchester Street to the University. Click here to view the latest timetable on the First Bus website (external link).
Plenty to do and see
Your ticket carries a seat row and number. We would encourage you to arrive early to pick up some food and a drink and browse our netball merchandise stand before taking your seat to watch the warm-up.
Please note that doors to the arena will close five minutes before the match begins so that we can bring both teams onto court successfully. Once the doors close they will not reopen until a suitable break in play during the first quarter or the quarter-break.
At some fixtures, there will be a preceding U21 or U19 match. If you’d like to watch the stars of the future playing in one of these matches on the day of your Superleague ticket, click here to visit our NPL page and see when the fixtures are.
Food
Our self-service Sports Café serves a range of food and drinks. It’s probably best to plan your arrival as the café and the hot-dog and snacks areas are very busy and popular on match nights. The adjacent Lime Tree Café (150m from our front door) also serves a large range of meals and snacks.
Your Ticket
Your ticket gives access to your dedicated seat in the Arena. You can show your booking e-mail, your e-ticket or your actual tickets on arrival. Stewards will be on hand to guide you. On entry to the Arena you will be given a hand-stamp so that you can exit and return easily during breaks.
