Regardless of stage, our aim is to nurture every player’s love for Netball while ensuring they are challenged at a level that matches their skills and dedication.
Every child develops differently, and their netball training should reflect that. The Netball Academy offers five age-group programmes in Singapore, helping players build their skills, confidence & understanding of the game as they grow.
Our youngest players learn the basics of netball through fun, engaging activities. Sessions introduce passing, catching, safe jumping & landing, alongside simple explanations of positions & court boundaries.
Coaches guide players as they learn to handle the ball, move safely & play with others. Games give them opportunities to practise these skills while building confidence & making friends.

Make sure your child is ready for every netball class at The Netball Academy. Here is everything they need in their training bag.
Comfortable, breathable sportswear suitable for Singapore’s warm climate. Opt for lightweight tops and shorts or skorts that allow full range of movement on the court. Need official training gear? Browse The Netball Academy shop for our full range of branded attire.
Hydration is essential, especially during outdoor sessions at Kallang Netball Centre. Bring a filled water bottle to every netball class.
A good pair of sports socks provides cushioning and helps prevent blisters during quick footwork drills and direction changes.
A small towel is handy for wiping down between drills, particularly for outdoor training in Singapore’s humidity.
A light snack like a banana or energy bar keeps energy levels up before or after a netball class. Avoid heavy meals right before training.
Long hair should be tied back securely for safety and comfort. Keep spare hair ties in the bag just in case.
Optional but recommended for players with previous ankle injuries or those in our older netball class programmes where gameplay is more intense.
Encourage your child to jot down what they learnt after each session. Tracking progress builds self-awareness and keeps players motivated throughout their journey at The Netball Academy.
Good to know: The Netball Academy provides all training equipment including netball balls and bibs for every session. Families do not need to purchase any extra gear to get started.
Children can join our netball class programmes from age 6. At this stage, kids have developed enough coordination and focus to benefit from structured group training in a fun and supportive setting. Our youngest netball class is designed specifically for 6 to 7 year olds and focuses on fundamental movement skills through games and play-based activities. There is no prior experience required as our coaches at The Netball Academy guide complete beginners through every step of the learning process. We welcome players up to 16 years old across all our venues in Singapore, with dedicated programmes for each age group to ensure the right level of challenge and development. Whether your child is just starting out or looking to build on existing skills, there is a netball class that fits their needs perfectly.
Our netball class sessions take place at multiple convenient locations across Singapore, giving families the flexibility to choose based on location and preference. The primary outdoor venue is Kallang Netball Centre, Singapore’s dedicated netball facility located within the Sports Hub precinct, offering purpose-built courts with proper line markings and regulation-height goalposts. We also conduct outdoor training at St Andrew’s Junior College in the Potong Pasir area on Saturday afternoons. For families who prefer guaranteed weatherproof sessions, The Netball Academy runs indoor training at Bedok Green Primary School and St Andrew’s Secondary School, both featuring sheltered courts where our netball class continues rain or shine. All four venues are accessible by public transport, and Kallang Netball Centre also offers ample parking for families driving in. The Netball Academy delivers the same coaching quality and curriculum at every venue across Singapore.
The skills taught in each netball class depend on your child’s age group and current ability level, following a structured progression pathway. Players aged 6 to 7 focus on fundamental movement skills including running, jumping, balancing, and basic ball handling that form the foundation for all court sports. Children aged 8 to 9 progress to actual netball techniques such as footwork, passing, court awareness, and understanding each position’s area of play, while also preparing for school CCA selections in Singapore. Our netball class for ages 10 to 12 introduces game rules, positional play, and tactical awareness at a comfortable learn-at-your-pace level that suits complete beginners. The most advanced programme at The Netball Academy is our 13 to 16 year old netball class, which develops spatial awareness, attacking and defending strategies, centre pass plays, and match intelligence. Every programme is designed to build real skills that transfer directly to school CCA tryouts and competitive play.
Preparing students for netball CCA selection is a key focus at The Netball Academy, particularly for players in our 8 to 9 and 10 to 12 year old programmes. Our coaches understand exactly what school selectors across Singapore look for during CCA trials and structure every netball class to develop those specific skills and qualities. Players learn proper footwork technique, passing accuracy, court awareness, and positional understanding that helps them stand out during tryouts and perform with confidence under pressure. We also build mental readiness through regular practice, positive reinforcement, and simulated game situations so children know what to expect when trial day arrives. Many of our students have successfully gained places in their school netball teams after training at The Netball Academy, giving them a genuine competitive advantage over untrained candidates. With netball part of the curriculum in more than 200 schools across Singapore, starting early at our netball class gives your child the best preparation possible.
Kallang Netball Centre is the premier netball facility in Singapore and provides a professional training environment that elevates every netball class session held there. The venue features purpose-built courts with proper line markings and regulation-height goalposts, giving players an authentic match-day experience every week. Being situated within Singapore Sports Hub, Kallang Netball Centre is easily accessible via public transport with both Kallang MRT and Stadium MRT nearby, plus ample parking for families who prefer to drive. Training at a facility dedicated entirely to netball helps young players take their development seriously and reinforces their commitment to the sport. The Netball Academy is proud to run netball class sessions at Kallang Netball Centre as it represents the highest standard of netball training facilities available in Singapore. The venue’s atmosphere and professional setup also helps players feel confident and motivated throughout every session.
Yes, The Netball Academy offers indoor netball class sessions at two excellent sheltered facilities in Singapore for families who prefer guaranteed training regardless of weather. Bedok Green Primary School provides sheltered courts with multiple session times available on Saturdays, making it a popular choice for families in the eastern part of Singapore with busy weekend schedules. St Andrew’s Secondary School offers another indoor option on Saturday afternoons, providing a convenient and consistent training environment for our 16 and Under age group. These indoor venues ensure that no netball class is ever cancelled due to rain, which is especially important in Singapore’s tropical climate where sudden downpours are common. The Netball Academy delivers the same quality coaching, structured curriculum, and player development at all indoor venues as we do at our outdoor sessions at Kallang Netball Centre. Players can also switch between indoor and outdoor locations if their schedule or preferences change throughout the term.
For most children, attending one netball class per week at The Netball Academy provides a solid balance of consistent skill development and adequate recovery time between sessions. This weekly frequency allows players to build on what they learn each session, reinforcing techniques and developing muscle memory without becoming physically fatigued or mentally overwhelmed. As children grow older and show increased passion for the sport, families may consider adding a second weekly netball class to accelerate their progress and deepen their understanding of the game. The Netball Academy offers multiple session times across different venues in Singapore, including both Kallang Netball Centre and our indoor facilities, making it easier to fit additional training into busy family schedules. We recommend discussing your child’s individual goals, energy levels, and capacity with our coaches who can advise on the ideal training frequency for their age and stage of development. The most important thing is that your child enjoys every netball class and stays motivated to keep improving week after week.
Absolutely, The Netball Academy welcomes complete beginners at every age level across all our netball class programmes in Singapore. Our structured curriculum is specifically designed to accommodate children with no prior netball experience alongside those with some background in the sport, so no one ever feels out of place. Coaches assess each new player individually during their first netball class and provide appropriate guidance, encouragement, and challenges based on their current abilities and confidence level. Our learn-at-your-pace approach means beginners are never rushed through skills or made to feel behind their peers who may have started earlier. Many of our most confident and skilled players today started their journey at The Netball Academy having never touched a netball before their very first session. Whether your child is 6 or 16, our netball class will meet them exactly where they are and help them grow from there.
Children should wear comfortable sports attire and supportive court shoes with non-marking soles to each netball class at The Netball Academy. We recommend breathable, lightweight clothing suitable for Singapore’s warm and humid climate, along with shoes that provide good grip and ankle support for the quick movements and direction changes that netball demands. Players should always bring a water bottle to stay properly hydrated throughout the session, which is especially important for outdoor training at Kallang Netball Centre where sessions run for up to two hours. The Netball Academy provides all training equipment including netball balls and coloured bibs for every netball class, so families do not need to purchase any extra gear before their child starts. As your child progresses and commits further to regular training in Singapore, our coaches can recommend specific netball shoes and accessories that offer better court performance and support. Keeping it simple at the start means your child can focus entirely on enjoying their netball class without worrying about equipment.
Enrolling your child in a netball class at The Netball Academy is straightforward and can be completed entirely online through our website. We encourage all new families to start with a trial session so your child can experience our training environment, meet our coaches, and interact with potential teammates before committing to a full term in Singapore. During the trial netball class, our coaches will observe your child’s current abilities and recommend the most suitable programme based on their age, experience, and development goals. Once you are ready to proceed with regular training, you can complete registration and payment through our online system and select your preferred session times and venue, whether that is Kallang Netball Centre or one of our indoor facilities. The Netball Academy team is also available via WhatsApp and email to answer any questions, help you choose the right netball class, and guide you through the entire enrolment process. We make joining as easy as possible so your child can get on the court and start enjoying netball without delay.
The Netball Academy offers both beginner and intermediate levels within our netball class programmes to ensure every player trains at the right standard for their current ability. Our beginner netball class, designed primarily for players aged 10 to 12, focuses on teaching fundamental skills from scratch including basic footwork, catching, chest and shoulder passes, and an introduction to netball rules and court positions. Players in the beginner programme learn at their own pace with no pressure to rush through content, and coaches provide individual attention to help each child build confidence on the court. Once a player consistently demonstrates the desired skill milestones and shows readiness for a greater challenge, they can progress into the intermediate netball class where training becomes more game-focused with tactical elements and match play scenarios. This clear progression pathway at The Netball Academy keeps players motivated because they can see tangible goals ahead of them and track their own improvement over time in Singapore. Our coaches will always discuss progression with parents first to make sure both the child and family feel confident about moving to the next level.
