Netball team

About

We are a friendly and inclusive competitive netball team here at City, University of London. We have a 1^st Team and a 2^nd team who both regularly play in BUCS. We train once a week on a Monday and hope to reintroduce strength into and conditioning sessions to complement our training.

Socialising is at the heart of our practice, as we believe bonding with your teammates is vital for communication, game play and making lifelong friends! Off field activities/socials: Fundraisers for our charities, team bonding outings and CityBar events for University Students/Wolfpack. Charity: JDRF and fundraising for Hodgkin Lymphoma or maybe Mind (mental health)
