Birmingham Summer Netball League 2020
Welcome, to the Birmingham Summer Netball League!
Over the years we have seen the BSNL continually change and grow, moving with the times.
We started the BSNL in 1978 to bridge the gap, and keep netball flowing during the summer months when the BNL winter season had ended, and like them, we offer Grassroots Netball to a diverse level of abilities, catered to by 12 divisions [hosting around 72 teams]. This year we see the inception of CV for Summer, with the League moving to Birmingham University, where we have access to 10 superb courts based right within the heart of Birmingham.
And not just players – needing 20 Umpires per round, we are also proud to support our Officiators, and offer an outlet for them to progress their skills and work through their levels.
Definitively a “Summer” League, our matches run from April to July, this season split over two times slots, on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, with all divisions playing at this centralised location.
Our passionate Committee of Volunteers, led by Christine Peddie, our League Chair, tirelessly organise divisional placements, fixtures, matches, timetables, umpires and all the behind the scenes administration to ensure the smooth running of the League and are inspired by the huge numbers of participants we watch play our beautiful sport on a weekly basis.
While we are specifically the Birmingham Summer Netball League, we do work closely with our Colleagues in the other Birmingham Leagues – Birmingham Netball League [BNL] & Intermediates League (BINL) - and with the Birmingham Netball Association (who also offer Funding to Coaches and Courses to Umpires & Coaches), to co-ordinate dates on events and tournaments (dates and times of which are on the Website Calendar) and particularly with the County Umpiring Secretary, who organises Umpire Assessments, working closely with the BSNL’s Team of Umpiring Administrators – Click on them for links to all their pages.
The BSNL hold an annual AGM in Sept/Oct and application forms for each new season need to be in to us by the Dec 20th each year. Information updates and bulletins on this will be posted on this website, as well as other social media outlets.
So, welcome to Netball in Birmingham!
Please feel free to peruse the website, check out fixtures and results, and if you are looking for a Team or Club, check out our Clubs pages.
For New Clubs, whether you are Back to Netball, Couch to Court or just a bunch of mates who are looking to come together in a fun team sport, please feel free to e-mail us – all details on the contacts page.
Happy Netballing!
