Satellite Academies

Satellite Academies are centres where players who have been selected (from years 7, 8 & 9) receive enhanced coaching, skills development and sport science information. Emphasis is placed on the individual’s athletic development not team play. This is the first step on the England Netball Talent Pathway. 

Satellite Trials:
North London - Sunday 13th June - download form

County Academy

This academy is the second phase of the pathway. Talented athletes (from years 10 & 11) continue to receive enhanced coaching, skills development and sport science information.  Emphasis is still placed on the individual’s athletic development not team play. It is not essential for a player to have attended a Satellite Academy for them to be eligible to attend a County Trial.
