Competition
Welcome to the Derbyshire competion section, here, we proudly showcase our robust array of competitions designed to cater to both adult, junior and walking netball players across the County.
Compete, Achieve, Celebrate
Our competitions are the heartbeat of our association, providing thrilling opportunities for players to challenge themselves, achieve excellence, and celebrate their passion for netball. Our leagues offer a dynamic and supportive environment for all participants.
We aim to provide a positive experience for everyone involved, including the players, team organisers, umpires, and event organisers. We hope the passion for the game continues into the many generations of players now and in the future.
The Netball Season
The season kicks off in September with the restart of local leagues, the Senior Regional League, and the Junior Regional League. Schools hold their County Rounds for the U14, U16, and U19 tournaments in October and November, leading up to the Regional Schools Tournament in late January.
To encourage Derbyshire teams to participate in Regional Events, we offer support toward entry fees whenever possible - click here to find out more.

Competition Technical Support Group (TSG)
We aim to facilitate Clubs who wish to compete in local, County, Regional and National Competitions.
The Competition Group meet to plan competition dates, rules and regulations, protocols and procedures, and budgets for County competitions.
We have regular meetings and updates from East Midlands Netball and share responsibility with the other Regional Counties to host annual tournaments, involving pre-event management and tournament officials on the day.
We welcome suggestions for County events, particularly since the county is spread over many miles.
