WELCOME TO THE HART JUNIOR NETBALL CLUB
At Hart, we believe that every child should have the opportunity to enjoy and play netball - for that reason we are an inclusive netball club and do not require children to ‘trial’ for a place in one of our squads.
Should we feel that a child is ready to train and play as part of our Hart Academy, they will be invited to do so.

Training
TRAINING TAKES PLACE AT EITHER CALTHORPE PARK SCHOOL OR ELVETHAM HEATH COURTS IN FLEET
All our age groups train on a Monday night during the term time
17:30-18:30: Years 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7
18:30-19:30: Years 8, 9 and 10
19:30-20:30: Year 11
Our training sessions are tailored to the needs of the juniors and consist of a mixture of skills and coached match play.
Training location rotates each half term, to ensure that all children get the opportunity to play indoors and outdoors. Parents are notified of training locations each half term using our facebook page, email and whatsapp groups.

WHAT DO I WEAR?
For training, you can wear anything! But we do have Hart Netball Club Kit that can be purchased from our Club Kit Shop.
For matches, we wear our Hart green and black dresses, which are given to you as part of your membership, and can be exchanged for a larger size as your child grows.

WHAT HAPPENS IF IT RAINS?
For safety, we do not train outside if the courts are wet and slippery. All parents are informed on WhatsApp, by 4.30pm on a Monday if training will be cancelled due to wet weather. In this instance we instigate a wet weather plan, where certain year groups will train indoors. This is rotated to ensure that all girls get the opportunity to train indoors if it is raining.
WHAT DOES IT COST?
We have two memberships at Hart:
Full Membership (£25 per month), which includes training and matches
Training Only Membership (£16 per month), which includes training only.
Subs are paid by direct debit on a monthly basis and we ask that you include your daughters name and year group as a reference.
Thinking of joining us?
We'd love to hear from you! We are always looking for new players to join one of our teams.
