Worst social league Worst social league This league is entirely focused on taking money and not on playing. The central team are slow to respond, assign teams, get the right level for players or teams. There is also the intimidation about signing up for leagues and potential debt that I’ve never experienced anywhere else! Local managers & umpires are for the most part very poor. Run through Facebook, they resort to posts about teams or players when they’re not happy. There is no involvement in helping to organise fill ins, which could make sure people always got a game. It really feels like they couldn’t care less as long as they get your money. I’m sure the only reason people join is because it’s local. I’d recommend alternative leagues if available.

Play Netball Colchester got me back… Play Netball Colchester got me back into a team sport after over 15 yrs gap. I joined a team of fabulous like minded ladies, all who had never met before, we gelled straightaway and are great friends. Whatever fitness level, age, ability, play netball is for all - it’s a fun way to get a bit fitter, challenge yourself, socialise and meet other inspirational women!

Go elsewhere unless you want short games and bad umpires Awful set up. Awful umpires. Paying for a league when umpires regularly cut games short. There’s little warmth and definitely an air of them wanting to just finish and get home. Many have a bad attitude too. Often games are cancelled at short notice due to lack of empires which is super frustrating. Courts are often wet with no prep to clear puddles. This centralised system has little idea what is going on at each location and appear to just be happy taking the money, providing a very shoddy service and umpires.

Poor umpiring Poor umpiring - they don’t care about our health and safety in the slightest. Only there to take our money and spend it on hoodies for themselves. They don’t put it towards training and improving their skills which are incredibly sub-par. Only reason I stick around is for my team !

Don't delay, change your life today! My overall experience of play netball has been amazing. 2 yrs ago I came across a Facebook post and I contacted play netball and got myself into a team. I now play regularly every week and am in 2 leagues in my area. I've met some amazing players, grown in confidence in my own abilities and become healthier in mind and body. Above all its been fun, and socially met some awsome seeladies I'm privileged to call friends. Would recommend to anyone as a platform from for getting back into netball.
