Futureprint Netball Club

Futureprint High 5 netball has now been running for just over a year. We train on Friday evenings between 5.30pm and 6.30pm at Weston Favell Upper School sports hall.

We have 16 children (boys and girls) between the ages of 7-11 join us to learn new netball skills, have lots of fun and make new friends. The children have all improved tremendously and we have recently joined the Northampton League Junior Section who are running a High 5 league once a month from November to April 06. We have entered 2 teams and our first 2 rounds of matches have now been played. The children had a brilliant time and both teams had a taste of winning!!!!!!!!

If you would like to join us we would love to see you!!
Boys and girls are welcome, so if you are interested please contact Judy Stone on Telephone 07734 218188.

High 5 Netball
High 5 Netball is the only game of netball that children of Primary school age should be playing. It is a fun-filled, skillful game, where players are able to rotate positions and adapt their skills to play in any position. The game was developed through extensive consultation with coaches, teachers and physical educationalists.
Along with many other sports, we believe that a modified game at this age group provides the best foundation for young people to develop the physical, social and tactical skills required, in addition to developing knowledge and understanding of the game.
