Please complete a trial registration form before 3rd August. These should be sent to Hannah Goodey at hgoodey@hotmail.com.

Please see the information below which should help you to decide which Squad you should be trialling for. If you attend Squad 2 trials, and are of the required standard, you may be asked to stay for Squad 1 trials. If you attend Squad 1 trials and are not of the required standard you will be considered for a Squad 2 team.

There is a trial fee of £5 which you should bring with you on the day.

Cumberland has two senior training squads that consist of three – four competitive team squads. 12 – 14 players are selected for each team squad, and each team squad has a dedicated coach and match day manager.

Squad 1: Premier, Regional and A Team Squads

Squad 2: B, C, D and E Team Squads

If you have not played netball before or for a very long time please get in touch with us to discuss the most suitable opportunity for you to play. We are currently coaching some Back to Netball Courses with England Netball in Barnet and Camden and also have links with social netball teams in the area.

Make sure you turn up in suitable playing kit, bring plenty of water, sunscreen, a hat or waterproofs etc. depending on the weather.

Please arrive 15 minutes before the times stated above, in order to register. Please ensure you bring with you your £5 trial fee (if you do not bring this on the day you may not be able to trial).

The trials for each squad will take the following format:

Selectors will be noting your abilities throughout each of the sections, as well as your ability to listen and put into practice instructions.

Trials will be held as part of the pre-season training sessions, the first of which is held Weds 10th August 2011. Those trialing for Squad One should attend between 8-9:30pm and those trialing for Squad Two should attend between 7-8:30pm. The following pre-season trials will be held Weds 17th and Weds 24th August

There is a pre-season training fee of £5 per session.

If you pay your membership fees and fill in your membership form prior to 10th August you will not have to pay the trial fee or the pre-season training fees. You will have to continue to pay a £5 training fee for every session you attend until we receive your membership fees and forms (which is non-refundable and non-transferable to your membership fees). You will also not be eligible to compete in matches until you pay your membership fees and filled in a membership form.
