In March 2020 we were reaccredited as a Silver CAPS Club.

The Club Action Planning Scheme (CAPS) is aligned to the Sport England Clubmark accreditation scheme which is the only national cross sports quality accreditation scheme for clubs with junior sections. It is built around a set of core criteria which ensure that accredited clubs operate to a set of consistent, accepted and adopted minimum operating standards.

CAPS is a fantastic club development tool which enables clubs to develop a within a wide range of areas.  Achieving this accreditation means we are recognised nationally as having a well-run club that is active and accessible. This means we are committed to getting the best out of young people and giving everyone a sporting chance.

CAPS has three levels of accreditation: Bronze, Silver and Gold.

Bronze CAPS is the first level, incorporating the Clubmark criteria covering the areas of safeguarding and protecting children and young people, quality coaching and officiating, competition, talent development, sports equity and good management. Bronze must be achieved before Silver or Gold. 

Silver and Gold CAPS are about demonstrating further quality across the areas of coaching, officiating, and developing volunteers.  We are now working towards achieving our Gold award.

Development 

In line with our commitment to CAPS we are very keen to develop our netballers according to their own individual ability.  There are also many opportunities for them to develop as young coaches and umpires. In addition, we are committed to developing our adult volunteers and coaches.
