End of Season Rally - 2017

20/5/2017

A mixed bag of weather today including sunshine and showers didn't deter the Croydon Netball league girls.

Our end of season rally had plenty of surprises.

Cup winners: Demonettes
Runners up: Coombe
Score: 7 -4.

Best defence was won by Wandsworth N.C.
The plate winners were Crickets N C, while runners up were HS.
Our shooting competition was won by Jemima Longhurst from HS.

We collected £40, of which Jemima received £20 and the remaining balance went to our Floodlighting fund.

Thanks to all the umpires. Without you all we could not play our much loved game.
Well done everyone .

Resurfaced Courts Completed

16/5/2017

Croydon Netball League are delighted with their newly resurfaced courts at their home venue Shirley High School, Croydon. Working with England Netball and Shirley High School we have been able to have the courts resurfaced, new markings, new sunken posts and new perimeter fencing. The League are also busy fund raising to cover the cost of installing floodlights on the courts so that we can bring our Monday and Thursday evening leagues to the same venue.

To help us celebrate the opening of the new courts we asked along the local Conservative MP for Croydon, Gavin Barwell, along with Mrs Maureen Clark, president of the Surrey County Netball Association, Edward Handley, Chairman of the Croydon Playing Fields, Jackie Rowland, the CNL Chairman and Julia Martin CNL Treasurer. Leigh Martin, Surrey's development officer who gave this project so much of her time and support, CNL committee ladies, who have all worked towards this goal, were also along to see the fruits of their hard work.

Finally a surprise visit from Rhea Dixon England U21 Vice captain/Surrey Storm also helped to raise the profile of this occasion.

Press Release

28/2/2017

We are delighted to be working with England Netball and Shirley High School in having a major amount of work done on the netball courts we currently use at the school for our central venue.

The first part involves all the courts being resurfaced with court line markings, sockets for the new socketed posts we now have as part of health & safety, new perimeter fencing and ducting for the floodlighting and the total cost is in the region of £97,000. This work has now started and is due to be completed after Easter and we are so looking forward to seeing and using these great facilities.

The second part involves getting the floodlighting installed which we are looking into with Sport England under a new funding initiative they have in place, and again Shirley High are looking to part fund this. We the League are also looking at ways to get funding for this, as we will benefit enormously from all of this being on one site to help us improve and ensure the longevity of netball in the borough and of course CNL. This is being looked at to be done in the next 6 months and the cost for this is in the region of £47,000.
