About Us
We are a fun, competitive and friendly netball club which accommodates to all levels of netball.
Whether you're a novice wanting to learn a new skill, a one-timer ready to play again, or a seasoned netball player ready for your next challenge, we are the club for you! Improve your fitness, make lifelong friends and play a highly skilled game!
Training:
We train at the Glasgow Academy and the Stevenson building.
Our recreational and development squads train on Tuesdays, with our Development BUCS squads (4s–6s) training on Mondays. Our Performance BUCS squads (1s–3s) follow a more intensive schedule, training multiple times each week.
Our training facilitates all levels of play, and so, we have three slots available:
Recreational training
Our beginners rec training and our development rec takes place on Tuesday evenings. Both sessions are fun but also challenging enough to improve your skills without the pressure of competition.
Development Squad training
A session for the more experienced. Always a fast paced and fun session where girls will be constantly improving on their skills and preparing themselves for competitive games in many BUCS University leagues.
Performance Squad training
A high-performance competitive squad designed for elite athletes who are committed to 5–6 high-intensity sessions each week. This squad competes at the top level across multiple leagues, including the Glasgow League, the upper BUCS divisions, and the National League.
Teams:
We currently have six squads competing in the BUCS university leagues on Saturdays, our 1s and 2s play in 1A - the highest BUCS tier in Scotland. Our 3s play in 3A, our 4s in 5A, our 5s in 6A, and our 6s in 7A (after only one season of participating in BUCS). All of these leagues are highly competitive and rewarding and we are super proud of all our players.
Aside from playing BUCS and related competitions, we also participate in the Netball Scotland National League, Glasgow Netball Association (GNA), the Scottish Cup and Taxis Cup – a competition between the three universities in Glasgow: University of Glasgow, University of Strathclyde, and Glasgow Caledonian University.
Our 1s and 2s play in the local Glasgow Netball Association League. With our 1s playing Division 1 and the 2s playing Division 2 (these divisions are extremely high-quality and sometimes attract national players).
