Description

Our ParaNetball sessions will initially be for ages 9 – 25 years old, and each session will be free due to funding through our partnership with Nichols plc. If you are over 25 and would be interested in future opportunities for ParaNetball then please do get in touch directly to see what options may be available in the future.

Our coach Rebekah is deaf herself and is able to offer additional support anyone who is deaf or has a hearing impairment during the sessions.

We will deliver suitable netball skills and fun games during the sessions. Within our sessions we introduce the group to one another, do a fun warm up followed by some ball skills and into match play. However, we work with our participants at their own pace, and support all throughout the sessions to ensure no one gets left behind. We understand there may be varied abilities within the session but we ensure our sessions remain inclusive and everyone has a great time!

Siblings are able to join in should they wish to support their brother/sister – please do book them on also.

We look forward to seeing you at our sessions!
