Testimonials

Since starting the academy in 2022, we’ve coached over 250 players, ranging from age 4 to 15 years old, with varying levels of experience. We’re passionate about providing access to netball and all of its fantastic benefits. Here’s what a few of the members of our community have said.

I have had the pleasure of being taught at school by both Hayley and Brenda. At the time I was juggling my studies playing netball at an elite level, and they were a vital source of support and encouragement. Their style of coaching is nurturing and gentle whilst also effective in conveying their technical and tactical message. I feel this is essential for the development of young players but, more importantly, for helping them to enjoy the game as well as progress. I would highly recommend Pivotal Netball Academy to any player who enjoys or wants to start playing netball and is looking for a positive, supportive environment.

Pivotal Netball hosted my daughter’s 11th birthday party, which was fab. The team were so approachable and energetic and the girls took no time to get going. The ball skills were engaging and encouraged team work, followed by some netball tips and smaller games which they all enjoyed. The team also ensured younger members of the party were involved. We got lots of positive comments from parents and the children about how fun the afternoon was, something a little different and great exercise!

I absolutely love coaching at Pivotal Netball Academy. The children who attend progress so much and their engagement and enjoyment throughout is inspiring. Creating an opportunity for young players to get involved in netball, whether that’s for the first time, or simply just without committing to club, netball is amazing and very much needed in our community! I cannot wait to coach for Pivotal again, such an incredible and successful netball academy.

I want to say a huge thank you for all Pivotal Netball has done for my daughter. She has attended the morning sessions for a couple of terms now and has absolutely loved everyone. She has gone from not having played netball much to making it into an U12s club team. More importantly, she received excellent coaching, guidance and encouragement to simply participate for fun and enjoyment. Both my daughters attended the summer camp (aged 11 and 13) and had such a fun time being active and making new friends. The staff made the days fun and enjoyable. It is so lovely to find a club like Pivotal which is as much about learning skills as it is about encouraging children to be active and participate regardless of ability without the need to compete for places.

My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed the netball sessions with Pivotal Netball. It’s wonderful to have good quality, fun netball sessions available to children as young as 4. The coaches are patient, kind and encouraging. These sessions are a great way of building confidence and having fun with friends.

Freya really, really enjoyed herself at netball camp. It’s a challenge trying new things, but she’s felt secure and confident at the camp. I have also very much appreciated the wonderful, prompt and detailed communication. We’ll definitely be booking again!
