England Netball Player Pathway
Purpose of the programme: Learn, Love, Win
Learn the game: We will help the athletes extend their knowledge of the game and develop strategies on how to effectively outwit opponents. We will create an environment of uninhibited curiosity, one that encourages autonomous and independent thinkers who can lead themselves and champion the improvement of others. Our coaching is focused on achieving Technical Excellence, Tactical Superiority, Psychological Edge and achieving our Physical Potential.
Love the journey: We want all athletes to receive a positive experience of the game of netball no matter where they are on the pathway, fostering a life-long love of the game. The athletes should enjoy what they do, and feel encouraged, supported, and motivated. We will prioritise the unique individuality of each athlete, embracing challenges and new experiences together as we help them develop a limitless belief in themselves. We have a desire to go beyond what’s possible.
Win deep: We plan, prepare, and play to win but it is not our only purpose. Winning deep is the sum of Learning the game and Loving the journey. There is a richness in Winning deep because of the challenge, chaos and commitment that play a part in it. We have a deeper connection to winning and going beyond what’s possible because we are driven by our purpose to inspire our communities and the nation.
Outcome of the programme:
ALL player pathway programmes will provide appropriate on and off court support for all to achieve the development standards necessary for next stage of the player pathway, that is outlined in the Roses Development Framework on the England Netball website.
Under 13 – This is the first entrance into the player pathway and the focus is on individual development. The emphasis is on athletes learning how to train with decision making being a pivotal element, alongside developing resilience and skills required to play netball. Learning the game as well as loving the game with a sense of working together is essential to enhance their experiences at this early stage.
Under 15 – The emphasis remains on understanding learning how to train and compete with competition being used to consolidate game understanding, refining skills, and see improvements in decision making.
East Essex County Player Development Programmes
The East Essex Player Pathway Programmes operates over 2 age groups in Under-13 serving athletes under 12 and 13 and Under-15 serving athletes under 14 and 15, although the age range is flexible to cater for individual needs and maturation.
An athlete may spend between 6 months to 2 years at either stage with the eligible age of athletes at Under-U13/15 is, as of 23:59 on 31st August 2022

Competition
All athletes should be regularly taking part in relevant competition including club leagues within county, U14/16 Regional Leagues, tournaments and inter-school competition.
For Under-15’s there is the opportunity to be part of the School Games National Finals 2023.
VNSL Teams are responsible for providing opportunities through Academies for the best Under 15 athletes and up, these athletes could be part of the National School Games competition squad.
N.B: VNSL teams may have selected their athletes for 22 for the competition in early Sept 2022.
For 2023, the talent pool from which VNSL Teams can select the Under 15 Academy squads for the National School Games competition will be those athletes within County player development programmes.
From June 2023 athletes who attend any County Player Development Programme, and who are registered on Engage by 31st March 2023, may attend trials for any VNSL Team’s Under 15 Academy programme from June 2023
Only those athletes that are within the EN endorsed player pathway structures for U15’s will be eligible for the above. Players within the EN endorsed County structures will all be registered on Engage and will be eligible.
Athlete Progression
We may offer two summer workshops for the 2022/23 PDP athletes in June and July to help towards progressing to the next level. There may be a small cost involved for each of these sessions
Athlete Progression for Under-13’s is the County Under-15 Player Development Programme.
There is no automatic entry to the next stage of the player pathway. Athletes must be nominated by the County Under-13 Player Development Programme Head Coach to trial along with others nominated by clubs. This applies even if an athlete has already had a year in the Player Development programme.
If the athlete has reached their potential in a County Under-13 Player Development programme it is recommended that they continue their training at club level.
Athlete Progression for Under-15’s is the VNSL Team’s Under-15 Academy and VNSL Team’s Under-17 Academy. There is no automatic entry to the next stage of the player pathway. Players must be nominated by the County U15 Player Development Programme Coach or by the County Player Development Lead to trial along with others nominated by clubs and schools.
If the athlete has reached their potential at County Under-15 Player Development programme it is recommended that they continue their training at club level.

East Region U15 Selection Policy V4.1 – NEW
Screening for U13/U15 athletes for East Essex Player Development Programmes 2022
All screening has now been completed and invitation have been sent out to successful athletes. If Clubs has an athlete, they think should be screened during the season please contact the Performance Manager Michele Quaife
Nomination Criteria Information:
Nomination is through Netball Clubs only and athletes will need to be competing in club competition and they must be members of England Netball. We do not accept nominations from schools, parents or other individuals to nominate athletes. Schools should contact the County Player Development Manager if they have any questions. All member clubs within the East Essex netball family will receive notification of the screening.
Clubs that are within other County Netball Associations, can nominate athletes to the East Essex screening, again, athletes will need to be competing in club competition and should be a member of England Netball and can be found on the Engage system. Please note if an athlete, from another county is successful in gaining a place on an East Essex PDP, they will have to become a member of the East Essex County Netball Association via Engage, to be eligible for their place.
The number of participants per PDP will be 20, this is something that is part of the criteria set out by England Netball and we have to adhere to these numbers, clubs can nominate 3 athletes for each PDP. We would ask that club coaches really consider carefully before nominating athletes. So, as well as having the skills required that the athlete, their parents and the club will have the commitment required to fully participate in the programme. With less numbers we will have to be much more stringent with the current selection and deselection policy.
Athletes currently in the county system will be automatically invited to the screening if still eligible and with the Head Coaches approval, so clubs will not need to renominate them. This obviously excludes those that are moving into Year 11, as the PDP criteria only goes to Year 10. Please do take note of the training day and times and consider other options if this is likely to be an issue as mentioned above.
Athlete Nominator Guidance 2022-23
These guidelines provide information to assist coaches when making decisions for nominating athletes for County Under-15 and Under-13 Player Development Programme Screening.
Athlete Nominator Guidance 2022-23
Athlete identification and selection
NETBALL ATHLETE PERFORMANCE IDENTIFICATION POLICY 2022 2023
Each County Netball Association has their own open, fair, transparent and year-round screening and selection process in line with the England Netball Screening and Selection Policy to identify athletes who are having the ‘potential’ to achieve the skills outlined in the Roses Development Framework.
If an athlete is nominated by a club during the season, they can be screened but will only be invited subject to spaces being available within the PDP’s as only 20 athletes per programme are permitted.
The CAN Selection Policy guidance will be used at the East Essex Screening events, so for those nominated please take note of the selection criteria and what will be required from the athletes.
Other Screening Opportunities and information
It is important to note that many of the VNSL Teams will have trials leading to training opportunities available for U15 athletes over the summer, but these may not be EN endorsed player pathway programmes and may exclude athletes from being eligible for the U15 VNSL Academy pathway. It is important to check if these are endorsed EN player pathway programmes especially if you are Year 9/10 from September 2022.
If you decide to go down this route and trial and gain a place for any unendorsed VNSL training opportunity and are also invited to a County U15 PDP as well, we may advise you to choose one or the other, as we will require absolute commitment to the County U15 PDP or you may be deselected. If deselected this could put at risk your opportunity to trial for the Under 15 Academy squads for the National School Games competition in January 2023.
The other VNSL EN endorsed player pathway programme trials for the remaining VNSL Teams Player Development Programme and VNSL Teams U17, U19 and U21 Academy will take place in September to October 15th at the latest.
