Social Netball
NTU Sport League
Enter your own team into one of our NTU Sport internal leagues. These leagues run weekly during term time, coordinated by NTU Sport staff and officiated by qualified match officials. It’s a great opportunity to play in a more casual, friendly league with your friends while still enjoying regular fixtures.
Play4Fun
Playing sport doesn’t have to mean a big, long‑term commitment. Our Play for Fun sessions are open, relaxed training opportunities designed for anyone who just wants to give netball a try. You can simply book the session you want to attend in advance on the NTU Sport App, a perfect way to experience netball without joining a club or committing to a team.
