Development Netball
Is Development Netball for You?
Want to play competitive netball while developing your skills, fitness and ability? Our Development League could be the perfect fit for you.
The Development League is designed to help players reach their potential through weekly training and competitive matches. Whether your goal is to progress towards BUCS, improve your game or maintain your fitness, Devs has a team for you.
The infographic below outlines the structure of our Development Netball programme.
What is the Development League?
Our Development League consists of six teams, each with their own dedicated coaches, who train and compete throughout the season.
Teams have two sessions each week: a court session and a fitness session, both led by experienced coaches. Weekly fixtures are played on Wednesday or Saturday afternoons, with all six teams competing for the league title.
The Development League provides a great stepping stone towards our Moonraker and BUCS teams. Through strong communication between Dev and BUCS coaches, there is flexibility between the different squads, allowing players to progress and gain experience at the appropriate level.
Dev Plus
Dev Plus is a selected squad made up of players from across our Development teams.
Players selected for Dev Plus have access to an additional team training and external fixtures. The aim of Dev Plus is to give players the opportunity to experience playing against teams outside of UOBNC in a competitive environment similar to BUCS.
