High 5 Netball

Welcome to High 5 Netball. Everything High 5 is right here.FreeSchMship_Banner_1

High 5 is the massively popular entry game of netball. It’s a great way for kids to get active, enjoy themselves and make new friends. It’s designed specifically for children, aged 9-11, and uses fun and variety to get them into the game, polish skills and aid fitness.

With 5 players on court, and up to four off-court roles, High 5 enables you to engage more kids, more of the time. Off-court players take on roles such as time keeping and scoring.

High 5 can be for mixed or single-sex teams with a maximum of two boys on court at any one time.  A key part of High 5 is players rotating round positions. This means that all young people get to experience every position on court and makes for fitter more adaptable players as they get older.

 

Netball South West's long term vision is to see Netball being played in all primary schools across the region.
