TRAIN FOR THE NEXT LEVEL

The NET ACADEMY is designed to help players to learn, train and perform as athletes so that they can reach the next level of their game, be outstanding on the court and be confident entering club, county or franchise trials, training environments and competitions with their clubs and schools.

The academy is completely athlete centred, meaning that we focus every session around the individual to help them to improve their own performance and reach their own goals. In each session players will be exposed to strength and conditioning training, fundamental skills coaching, technical and tactical challenges and team building to help them to create the building blocks they need to become a better athlete.

The Academy does not replace club or school training. Rather it supports the learning of skills and understanding of the technical and tactical game so that players can reach their goals within the sport wherever they play. We aim to support the netball journey of players in a professional, performance driven environment alongside club and school commitments.

“It’s not about who you are now, but who you can be!”

All of our Academy players are equipped with the tools they need to reach the next level of their game. As well receiving strength and conditioning training, Technical and Tactical Coaching and feedback at every session, Athletes are also supported with an ‘Athlete Performance Plan’ (AFP) throughout their time at the Academy and given access to the NET MEMBERSHIP to help structure and support their training at home and in the gym to further their development.

OUR COACHES

We pride ourselves on selecting the best coaches for the job. All our Academy Coaches not only know the game inside out, but are dedicated to athletic development and performance to make players stronger, faster, thinking players so that they can really excel in their club and school training environments.

All of our coaches will take the time to provide feedback to players every session as well as helping them to understand their own progress and development by guiding through their individual AFPs. Coaches meet regularly for training with NET Founder Jenni and to share ideas on best practice, performance and most importantly discuss how we can get the best from our Academy athletes and excel the next generation of athletes!

TESTIMONIALS

Jenni delivered a superb high intensity session focused on exactly what my daughter had asked for, it was fun and full of great tips and advice to take away and apply once my daughter can return to netball. She left grinning from ear to ear one very happy tired girl thank you we will be back!

Rebecca Mead – 1:1 Performance Coaching (U13)

I have greatly enjoyed the time I have spent with Jenni as she has taught me a wide range of new skills not only improving my netball, but sports performance in general. The specific tips I have gained include sprint work, shooting technique, ball placement and movement. I enjoy every session with Jenni as she always makes tiring activities fun and entertaining. I have noticed that my netball and other sports have improved considerably over our sessions and I am pleased to be continuing to advance my skills with her on a weekly basis.

Lois Dawney – 1:1 Performance Coaching (U14)

All the girls loved the session, even though it was a tough work out in the sun! The training was pitched perfectly to stretch them but remain fun, and each felt that they improved their technique. Watching from the side-lines it was clear you kept them totally engaged and gave meaningful individual feedback. They loved being back together on court after such a long time, working hard and learning from a really energetic and passionate coach.
