Junior Club
Devizes Junior Netball Club started 18 years ago, and has been going strong ever since. Girls can join the club from the beginning of Year 5, and stay in the junior club until Year 9, although talented players may be moved up into the senior club earlier.
We meet at the Leisure Centre courts every Monday during term time. Year 5s to Year 7s train between 6 and 7pm, while Years 8 and 9 train alongside the senior club between 7 and 8pm. The club is run by Sue Bittner and Trudie Procter with help from other members of the club. All our coaches have received an enhanced CRB clearance.
The club operates on a 'pay as you pay' principle, with the current charge being £1 a week, plus England Netball's annual affiliation fee. All players in the junior club need to complete a junior club membership form and bring it to training together with the affiliation fee, which for 2011-12 is £19. Players should also complete a junior club code of conduct and return it with the membership form.
Girls take place in various leagues and tournaments throughout the year. If your daughter is selected she will be told at training and given a slip to bring home. Tournament information and other news is available here.
Juniors do not require a match kit, but may buy club sweatshirts (£10) and jackets (approx £30 depending on quantity ordered). See Sue Bittner for more information.
