Capricorn Junior Netball Club was founded in September 1998 as a result of the then Merseyside Youth Games Squad, wanting to continue playing netball together, after the Youth Games.
After trying out various venues in St.Helens, the Club is now settled at Sutton Community Leisure Centre, Elton Road, Sutton, St.Helens, Merseyside on Monday Evenings 5.30pm—8pm from September to July.
Sue Pritchard is the Club Coach having reached AENA Level 2 coaching award and C award umpiring qualifications, with assistant Coaches, Chris Roberts and Sandra King, all having Level 1 coaching awards working towards Level 2, and Janet Bosworth working towards Level 1. All of our current coaches have been CRB checked.
The club has a constitution and the members rules are reviewed and agreed by the Club Committee at the start of each season.
Each season the Club enters teams into the Cheshire/Merseyside league which plays on one Sunday a month. There are also various tournaments throughout the season, across the North West, which the Club is invited to compete in. In addition, the Club have entered two teams into the Reddish Indoor league for the Winter Season.
The Club colours are scarlet and yellow and all Club members have the opportunity to purchase a subsidised Club kit.
The Club has an affiliation fee of £20 per member paid annually at the start of each season and a training session attendance fee of £3 per member.
The Club has always enjoyed the full support of St.Helens Leisure & Recreation Department and greatly benefits from their advice and expertise. The club is always on the look out for financial support to enhance the experience of all our members. Any business wishing to sponsor the club should contact any member of the committee for information.
All are welcome and Parents/Guardians are encouraged to ‘Get Involved’.
