It’s that time of year again! Trials!
Hinckley Ladies Netball Trials will be held over three sessions similar to last years.
The dates and times are:
Wednesday 7th June 7- 9pm
Wednesday 21st June 7- 9pm
Saturday 1st July
More info about each session will be communicated nearer the time, this is to hopefully cut the waiting around time for everyone.
This year we want less pressure on individuals to perform on the trial evening, so we are taking multiple factors into consideration.
Firstly, your attendance to training and matches has been logged, work commitments, injury and family issues can’t be avoided and has been noted so please don’t worry too much.
Secondly, Bex Oldfield our coach will be sitting with this season’s captains to recap over how the teams worked, positives and negatives and possible future hurdles. This is will give a insight into players before the trials making it a much smoother, process and hopefully not shaking everyone’s nerves too much.
Thirdly, please make sure you fill out the trials form, as much and as honestly as you can.
Any questions please ask either your captain, or a member of the committee.
Thank you

Hinckley Ladies Netball A team were away to top of the league, Harbury on Tuesday night. Hinckley knew from the off that this game would potentially put them in a good position for promotion. However, the first 5 goals went straight to Harbury as Hinckley hadn’t quite switched on but managed to pick up the pace to close the gap by 1. The second quarter for Hinckley saw difficulties in the shooting circle due to solid defence from Harbury who stretched their lead to 27-20. In the second half Hinckley’s shooting duo got their eye in, teamed with good down court play and great defensive work, the score was tied 39-39 at the end of the third quarter. The fourth quarter started with fire for both teams going for the win, every goal counted and turn overs were made. It wasn’t until the Hinckley GS Carole Payne landed awkwardly and had to go off injured with a fractured ankle that Harbury managed to apply the pressure and stretch their lead to win 52-49. POM was GD Kate Chamberlain.
Monday evening saw a nail biting derby match between Hinckley D and Hinckley C . From the off the C teams strong attack pressurised the D team defence with some strong play around the goal circle and strong drives to receive long feeds in the circle . At the end of the 1st quarter there wasn’t much in it but the C team took to court in the second with determination to pile on the pressure successfully taking a small lead advantage . Undeterred the D team came back in the third with fire in their belly and with precise passing down the court and pin point accurate shooting from the shooters the D’s edged slightly ahead . It was all down to the last quarter with both defences staying composed and tight.. With only 1 goal in it, the D team secured another win 38-37. POM went to Zoe Stokes for her outstanding shooting for the C team and to WA Liz Newman for the D’s playing up from the E’s for her tireless attacks up and down the court .
