Our vision
Working closely with Warwickshire County Netball, we will deliver a comprehensive netball programme designed to increase participation and nurture talent within Coventry schools and the wider community. Our aim is to strengthen and enhance the current provision of coaching and competition, while also providing clear and accessible pathways for players to progress into club, county, and performance netball.
Our netball enrichment programme, which will also include holiday activities, will work alongside young athletes’ academic commitments while supporting the development of their leadership and life skills. This programme will complement and build upon the valuable work already being delivered by the Coventry Rugby community department within local schools.
Post-16 Elite Netball and Education Pathway
Our Post-16 Elite Netball and Education Pathway offers student-athletes the opportunity to combine their academic studies with a high-performance netball programme. The flexible timetable allows students to study a wide range of A-Level or vocational subjects while taking part in dedicated netball training sessions throughout the week. Athletes benefit from three performance-focused training sessions each week, including positional development, tactical game understanding and specialist coaching, alongside strength and conditioning support. The programme also provides volunteering and enrichment opportunities, attendance at professional netball fixtures, and access to training kit. This blend of engaging academic study and high-quality sporting development creates a rare and valuable opportunity for young athletes to learn, grow and progress both on and off the court.

Welcome To The New Era!
Meet Wes! Our new Head of Community and Netball
About Wes
Wes Blair has come on board here at Coventry as Head of Community and Netball and will bring a wealth of experience with her. Wes has a wealth of knowledge of both the game itself and the local netball infrastructure both club and elite performance.
“I’m looking to use my experience to develop a programme of Netball in the Coventry area which will increase participation numbers in primary and secondary schools, whilst also creating pathways to elite performance level for those that want to go in that direction.”
“I think it’s incredibly important that we engage with Warwickshire County Netball and England Netball to further develop in the local area, some of the excellent work that they’re already doing such as the NetballHer initiative which focuses on female health in sport.”
“We’re in a unique position with the Netball World Cup coming up in South Africa, and we’re really looking to build on that momentum within the primary and secondary schools in the area, as well as the local clubs.”
