TeamBath Netball Club (TBNC) is keen to extend their netball coaching provision by introducing an U12 section for the 2016/2017 season commencing September 2016.

The club is looking to create 2 squads, 22 players in total, who will receive weekly coaching sessions Sept 16 to Mar 17, and will play competitively in the Avon U12 league.

Players will be selected from those who express an interest to attend a selection process and who are moving into Yr 7 in September 2016. Exceptionally, 1 or 2 players may be selected from Yr 6 if it is considered to be in their best interests.

If this is of interest to you and your daughter please would you complete the on-line form at this link by 22nd June http://www.tbnetballclub.co.uk/jun_app_form.html

Further information on how the netball season is organised is given below:-

Selection Process

It will be necessary to organise a selection process in order for the club to select the 22 players.
These sessions will be held on Friday 24^th June and Friday 1^st July (if required) at 4.30pm to 6pm during TRIBE sessions at Bath Uni STV. Two fully qualified UKCC Level 2 coaches from TBNC will be present to make the selections.

Successful players will be given the opportunity to attend the weekly training sessions and take part in competition.

If your daughter is not successful on this occasion she will be invited to attend TRIBE sessions on Fridays.

TBNC will issue further details about the selection process once names have been collated.

Coaching sessions

TBNC offer up to 26 weeks coaching from Sept to Mar (except school holidays) each year - these are likely to be held at 5.30pm to 7pm on Thursdays at The Royal High School, Lansdown Rd, Bath.
Sessions will be run by two fully qualified UKCC Level 2 coaches (one per team).
Each session will include elements of fitness training, skills and drills - all appropriate to their age and ability - with a period of match play at the end.

Matches

Both squads will be entered to play competitively in the Avon U12 league.
Matches are played on Sundays at a central venue in North Bristol at any and all of the following times: 10am, 11.30am, 1pm and 2.30pm. All Avon U12 squads will play in a seeding tournament (a Sunday late September) which will decide which division teams will play in - division will be made up of 5 or 6 teams each depending on the total number of teams entered.

Fees

It will be necessary to charge a membership fee to cover the cost of providing coaching and competition - £175 for the season

However this includes all costs incurred - England Netball affiliation (compulsory to play in the Avon league), all coaching fees (training and matches), all court costs (training and matches) and umpiring fees (matches only).

Match kit

It will not be necessary to purchase match kit - each player will be given a TB netball t-shirt which together with black shorts/skirt/skort will form the match kit.
However, players will be required to wear suitable footwear that provides both comfort and support.

TBNC hope that this opportunity will be of interest to you and your daughter and we look forward to hearing from you soon.
