“The girls had a fantastic time talking to the Wasps players and watching how they play, and have picked up a few playing tips that they can take into their own games against other schools. Some of them are also popping along to watch England play Jamaica at the Ricoh Arena in December.”

Wasps Director of Netball Tamsin Greenway added: “You could see the excitement in the girls’ eyes when we met them, which is great to see. Netball is growing in popularity, and we’re keen to nurture that as much as we can over the coming months.

“Hopefully this training visit and this weekend’s activities in the fan village will spur girls on to seriously think about taking up netball professionally in the future.”

The general public will also get to meet the full Wasps Netball squad in the Wasps Nest Fan Village for the first time ahead of Wasps’ Aviva Premiership clash with Newcastle Falcons on Sunday, October 30 (kick-off 2.30pm).

From midday, fans can watch and get involved with a number of drills with the Wasps Netball squad, and experience elite netball first-hand. There will also be the opportunity to chat to the players who’ll be available for photos and autographs throughout the day.
