Whole Sport Plan
Sport England funds national governing bodies to deliver their three outcomes - grow, sustain and excel and provides additional support to help them achieve this. Each sport has developed a Whole Sport Plan that explains how it plans to achieve these targets. This summary also helps partners identify possible opportunities to work together.

New High Netball Resources launched
England Netball is offering FREE membership to all primary schools who want to be involved in High 5 Netball - and the first 10 to register will receive free set of bibs and balls for their school.
High 5 is the fun, exciting way for 9-11 year olds to get involved in netball. Thousands of English primary schools are taking part and have seen their pupils become more confident, outgoing individuals through this engaging form of the game. High 5 involves rotating positions and leadership roles to encourage maximum participation and skill development. The game aligns with Key Stage 2 requirements helping to develop physical, social and tactical competencies through High 5 Netball.
Keeping youngsters healthy is high on the agenda for both parents and teachers, and England Netball knows how difficult it is to strike the balance between keeping children healthy yet happy. High 5 is a great way of keeping youngsters active and giving them real freedom to express themselves.
