King's-Crypt Nova Performance Centre for Severn Stars Netball

King’s-Crypt Severn Stars Netball Performance Centre

The King’s School and Crypt School are delighted to announce that they have joined forces to create a new Severn Stars Nova Performance Centre. The centre, based at The King’s School will provide athletes selected from across the region with advanced technical training, paired with strength and conditioning programmes to progress through the England Netball pathway.

The King’s-Crypt Nova Performance Centre is one of ten centres across Gloucestershire and Worcestershire providing young players with a clear and structured pathway, a competitive fixture list, and an opportunity to thrive in an excellent franchise. 

Head of Girls’ Games at King’s and the King’s-Crypt Performance Centre Head Coach, Becky Cantin, commented,

“Opening the new Performance Centre at King’s provides aspiring athletes living in Gloucestershire with a tremendous opportunity to play netball at the highest level in the country.

I would particularly like to congratulate the King’s pupils who have been selected for the 2023/24 Development Programme this year, these include Amelia K, Beatrice N, Brooke B-B, Charley G, Kitty C and Isabella W.

Alongside these talented athletes, we have some additional success stories that have progressed through the pathway including Daisy, Pippa L and Libby L. All three King’s pupils now train as part of Bath and Severn Stars PDP centres, each being great role models to younger pupils and demonstrating the success of our Nova Centre.

There are exciting times ahead for all of them and I look forward to watching their confidence and talent grow as the season progresses, as well as driving the success of netball at King’s.”
