150 of South West Netballers to benefit

Team Bath have announced their Academy Development Centre (ADC) programme.

The players, all aged between 15 and 18 years old, will have access to coaching and lifestyle support from the Blue & Gold within their home region at ADCs located in seven host venues across the South West – Bristol, Cornwall, Devon, Dorset, Gloucester, Somerset and Wiltshire.

More than 450 aspiring netballers applied to join the talent-development programme, supported by Team Bath’s Principal Partner Haines Watts, and attended screening during September and October.

The successful applicants receive on-court technical training and strength & conditioning coaching at their ADC on Monday evenings, although those sessions have been taking place online during lockdown. They have also received a Team Bath induction presentation, sharing the values and goals that the Blue & Gold aspire to, and have access to a brand-new Athlete Performance Manager.

Team Bath has a proud tradition of developing players through the performance pathway and onto the national and international stage. Nine of this year’s ADC intake have been selected to trial for England at U17 and U19 level, while recent Academy players Kirsty Harris, Hannah Passmore and Abi Robson have all been named in the Blue & Gold’s 2021 Vitality Superleague squad.
