Development is:

An evolutionary process
During an individual’s journey, there will be periods of transition, adjustment, failure and success. Re-evaluating this journey along the way, with some reference to what it takes to succeed will allow them to move forward with clear purpose.

Individual specific
There is more than one path for the developing netballer to take with no two journeys ever the same. Therefore, understanding the individual’s holistic development needs is important.

Shaped by experiences
Every interaction we have with an individual provides us with an opportunity to shape their development both on and off court.
