WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CLUB NETBALL AND REGIONAL NETBALL AT THE CLUB?

· Club netball focuses the children and adults on local league provision that is suitable for their development with coaching tailored to facilitate this; there is no junior league in Milton Keynes meaning the children travel to Northampton and Leighton Buzzard to access competition, as well as one day tournaments and overnight tournaments across the South and East regions. In addition, the club runs an overseas tour annually. There is a flourishing adult senior league in Milton Keynes and we actively encourage some of our regional players from 14+ to participate in this league when we feel they are ready.

· Regional netball and higher netball ( including Franchise and National academy) focuses on regional and higher league netball, National clubs, Superleague NPL and National academy for athletes that are able or have the potential to achieve in this environment ; there is no junior league in Milton Keynes meaning the children travel all across the South to access  South regional competition, as well as one day tournaments and overnight tournaments across the country. In addition, the club runs an overseas tour annually. The adult senior regional leagues are played across the South and East and some of the junior athletes access this from age 14+ if we feel they are ready.

We train and coach our club netball separately from our regional and higher netball which means more facilities, more time, more coaching time and more volunteers to ensure we can provide netball for all in our clubs.
