NETBALL
Lots continues over half term, Netball Nights just lost their most recent game, Premier League beat Tameside, WY Seniors beat Farsley Celtic. U16 lost in a friendly against Tameside. Lots of athletes have been playing with regional and national academies and with Elite Netball Training Centres. This weekend we have a WY Seniors match vs Wildcats and a Premier game away at Worcester. Good luck to everyone.

6 NOVEMBER – BUSY WEEKEND!
We head to our busiest weekend of the season so far on 6 November, particularly for U16 and above, so the coaches have been spending time planning out all of the squads for that weekend. These will be sent out as provisional squads soon. We have the following matches: U12 C v Yorkshire Terriers 2; Northern v Oaksway; U12 A v Yorkshire Terriers; U14 B v YMCA; Premier v Downs; Regional v Goole; U12 B v Huddersfield Giants; and finally U16 v Shipley 1! Anyone not playing should get to Beckett for 11:30 to support the Premier League side!

I hope you enjoyed reading about a couple of our coaches last week, there will be more in next week's update.
Thanks
Mariana

News Update #7

19/10/2016

Here is a midweek update, just to let you know a few things, and as promised recently some insights into some of our coaches.

Half term - no such thing in netball!!
Training and senior matches continue over half term, so these updates will continue! To those going away, have a great holiday! Some of our older girls will be involved in National Academy, Tri-Region, Regional training days and fitness testing over half term too! #betterneverstops! It is also final NPL trials this week and next week, so good luck to our girls in those trials too! For the younger girls, there are Elite Netball Camps that will help with skills development.

Jade, who has been coaching our U11 Tuesday session has left Leeds Athletic, so we are delighted to welcome Lucy Dudley, one of our Premier League players, who is a Level 2 coach, to lead that session.

News Update #6

19/10/2016

Results update
Four wins from four this weekend, plus a Netball Nights win last Wednesday, plus some great training sessions during the week and this weekend. Well done and thanks everyone. U12A and B both notched up big wins today, as did Northern League. Yesterday, WY seniors also got a good win vs Alliance. U14A and cross over players had extra training today and Anna coached the young Sunday group today.

Looking ahead
6 November - is a busy fixture weekend where we will need as many senior and U16 players available as possible, because we have Prem, Northern, Sen Regional and U16 teams all playing at similar times! Susie has already sorted availability, so if you have said you're available - please don't book anything else as you are likely to be playing in one of those matches! We will send out provisional teams in the next couple of weeks, as I know some people are away for half term.

Training continues over half term, see Google Calendar for details. U16 have a friendly against Tameside next week. U14A will have another extra training session/friendly as well in the next few weeks. Senior games continue over half term.

News Update #5

11/10/2016

Busy day of netball on Sunday, with 4 Junior teams out and 2 Senior teams. Just one very narrow loss, by just one goal, for our U14A team against a strong Giants unit. Wins across the board for U12, including our U11 playing up. Our younger athletes who train on a Sunday morning had a great session with Becky. Our Senior Regional Squad ground out a win by ten goals against a strong Calderdale team, with a number of our players in their first senior match and many new combinations. Northern squad beat Shipley by 16 goals, with a good performance. Thanks to all coaches and helpers, things ran a lot more smoothly this week and no shortage of helpers which is brilliant!
