Message About Trials on 31 August from Head Coach of Leeds Athletic - Anna Carter

"Thanks for everyone who attended trials today, a full day with more than 150 netballers. Some very tough decisions across all the age groups. We're constantly balancing squad sizes to give as many girls as possible a chance, but without taking too many so that there isn't enough court time at matches or sufficient coaching capacity etc. That's why we restricted the size of all the junior age groups.
I realise there's some disappointed girls, who I hope will bounce up and respond by working hard to improve their game. There are other good clubs around and girls develop at different paces, so never give up.
As coaches, we've seen a lot of talent today and are looking forward to the season ahead, we have high ambitions. Keep your eye on the website and your emails for information."

Netball Trainers Advice (added 26 November 2013)
Advice on Selection of Netball Trainers – by Ruth Cockerill, Physiotherapist
Many LANC players and parents will already know Ruth Cockerill, member of our current Premier Squad and ex England and Superleague player. Ruth is also a highly experienced physiotherapist, specialising in specialising in sports injury prevention and rehabilitation.
Thinking that players may have asked for new Netball trainers for Christmas, LANC approached Ruth for some advice on trainer selection, and this is what she said,
‘Netball is a unique sport that places a variety of demands on the body and feet, therefore a trainer designed specifically to accommodate the nature of the sport is advised. Asics are the main producer of Netball trainers but there are other brands producing them as well.
