Be the Best You on Court!

---

Wearing the correct trainers for netball can help reduce the risk of injury and provide players with the appropriate support.

Running trainers are designed for forward and backward movements and can lack the stability required for more lateral on court movements.

Use this Asics Netball Shoe Finder to choose the perfect pair for your position!

Finding the right fit for support and comfort is important for all players, irrespective of breast size.

For example, research shows a bad fit can increase the impact forces when landing, contributing to the risk of lower limb injuries.

A sports bra should never rub or chafe, and comfort on court allows players to perform to the best of their ability.

For guidance on how to choose the best sports bra for you, check out this great resource from Netballher.

Advice from England International, Natalie Metcalf...

Maintaining confidence under pressure is key to putting out a great performance on court. Focus on the things you can control, such as:

• preparation -training & nutrition
• attitude - optimism & drive
• effort -don't settle for mediocrity

Whilst all training sessions include S&C work to a certain extent, it is each player's responsibility to maintain the fitness levels required to perform to a high standard for a full match (excluding players coming back from injury or maternity leave, who may still be in the re-building phase).

Fitness Blender is a great resource where you can find free HIIT, cardio, strength, plyometric workouts, and more! 

All SNC members must take responsibilty for how they behave on and off the court, by behaving respectfully towards fellow club and team members, the opposition, and umpires at all times.

Win with dignity and lose with grace.
