Netball Tournaments and Football Coaching
for secondary schools
About netball and football weekends
Bring your netball and football teams on these special weekends in Wilshire and Shropshire. Your footballers benefit from the skill and experience of FA qualified coaches, whilst your netball teams play in tournaments officiated by England Netball, with prizes awarded by a Vitality Rose or a Vitality Netball Superleague Star.
It’s a great way to involve a wide range of pupils and concentrate on their specific sport. Everyone also enjoys the benefit of PGL adventure activities, and by combining both sports events in the same weekend you’ll help keep your travel costs to a minimum.
How it works
Netball Tournaments
for girls in years 7-11
Officiated by England Netball, your tournament schedule will include a minimum of 6 competitive games and more if you reach the knock-out stages.
Between tournament games, your group will be able to take part in 'come as you please' activities. Activities featured may include abseiling, aeroball, climbing, zip wire and many more. These will be delivered on a first-come-first-served queuing basis.
Football Coaching
for girls and boys in years 7-9
Coaching will be delivered by UEFA B and FA qualified coaches, in groups of 16.
Activity sessions will make up half of the programme for the weekend. Learn to work as a team on the Jacob's Ladder or bring out their competitive side with archery. Whatever activities your students try their hand at it'll be sure to make memories and bond them closer together as a group.
