England Netball is not just a sporting body. It is one of the most powerful platforms for women and girls in the country. As the national governing body for netball in England, they engage over three million women and girls through programmes ranging from grassroots participation to elite competition, including the Netball Super League and the England national team. Behind the sport is a deeper mission: using netball as a vehicle for confidence, wellbeing and belonging at scale, at a moment when girls are being left behind in alarming numbers. The opportunity is significant. There is a 280 million hour participation gap in girls' sport. The mental health and confidence consequences are well documented. And with a home-soil Netball World Cup in 2029 on the horizon, the timing for a bold five-year transformation has rarely been better. England Netball is working on a partnership proposition to bring in a small number of major partners to fund that transformation.
