The Usk Netball Club Junior Section caters for girls of all standards in school years 7 to 9. The junior netball coach is Martha Price, assisted by Carolyn Phillips and Joy Hughes.  The coaching team works hard to ensure the enjoyment and development of our juniors in a safe and friendly environment.

Every year the girls go to watch the Welsh Team play in one of their Superleague games. The home games are usually in Cardiff, or sometimes in Cwmbran, and sometimes televised on Sky Sports.

Some of the girls attended the Roadshow organized by the Welsh Netball Team in October. They thoroughly enjoyed the coaching by the Welsh players, doing new drills and meeting and talking to them about how the became a Welsh team player and nutrition and fitness. Posters were signed for the girls to take home and free tickets were given for the girls, by the Welsh Coach, to go and watch a Superleague game this season and support our National Team.

The girls benefit from playing in the South East Wales Junior League where games are played on a Sunday in Cwmbran Stadium, usually every month. Annual friendly tournaments are also arranged in Caldicot, Chepstow, Monmouth and at home at the Athletic Club in Usk. The girls also enjoy playing in a friendly tournament every other month in Brecon.

On 10^th October 2010 they played their first games of the season in Cwmbran. They won 7-0 against  Newport  and drew 6-6 with Ebbw Vale. What a start to the season.
