In this video, we spoke to Newbury Netball League Press Officer, Gemma White, Vice Chair of the league, Debbie Goddard, and Serious Sport Marketing Manager, Tom Mahnoney, about the partnership and how it benefits the players in the league.
Serious Sport have been partnered with the Newbury Netball League since July 2022 and we are proud to have supported the growth of the league in this time.
In April 2024, we got an opportunity to attend the penultimate set of fixtures this season at Cheam School to speak to committee members, players, and officials about how the partnership has benefitted the league.
Gemma White, Press Officer at the Newbury Netball League, said: "We decided to partner with Serious Sport because we have had lots of dealings with them in other areas and they had an amazing netball offering so we wanted to see if there was anything we could do to enhance our league."
As part of our partnership, we offer clubs looking to join us a discount and provide umpire tops as well as funding to support the not-for-profit league.
Tom Mahoney, Marketing Manager at Serious Sport, said:: "It has been a really proactive partnership with the Newbury Netball League and it is great that we are able to support a local organisation that is making such a difference in the grassroots game.
"Partnerships like this with the Newbury Netball League have been key to the growth of Serious Sport since we diversified our offering into the netball market."
Our discount and excellent netball dress offering has encouraged many clubs to partner with us and we were pleased to see so much of our kit on show.
