Physical Benefits

Netball is a terrific way to improve kids' overall fitness and at NetBuddies we strive to do this whilst having lots of FUN.  Netball players have to sprint, weave and swiftly change direction on the court, so it provides a fantastic cardiovascular workout.  All the quick twists and turns also improves flexibility and strengthens the muscles.

Reaction times, hand-eye coordination and depth perception are improved by the game’s focus on fast, accurate passing and quick decision making.

Truly a sport which is enjoyable, challenging and comprehensively healthy.

Social Benefits

Netball is a team sport, fantastic for building important social skills.  It helps kids build personal character and teach them the fundamental lessons on teamwork.  

At NetBuddies Fun-O-1 we want to provide a safe, fun platform where kids can learn new skills and make new friends in the process.  At NetBuddies kids  learn to work together as a TEAM through minor games and modified matches and as a result, they make new friends and grow their social confidence.

Verbal communication is key in any netball game, so being a part of a netball team means developing useful verbal skills.  Another important skill that is taught whilst having fun!

Mental Benefits

Now more than ever we are aware of the importance of maintaining and improving the mental health of our children.  More and more kids are suffering from depression, anxiety and stress.

At NetBuddies Fun-O-1 we offer kids the opportunity to learn new skills and create an outlet for their excess energy whilst having fun.  Our program provides a solid platform for learning how to play netball and enjoy spending time with your friends at the same time.  

 Physical exercise also produces endorphins, which naturally helps elevate mood, and the teamwork involved in netball allows children to develop friendships, which in turn helps improve their self-confidence and self-esteem. All of these aspects contribute to a strong foundation to help establish a healthy mind, which can lead to immense benefits in school, at home and in future work.
