Thinking about taking the leap back into netball, but got some burning Q's like...
🤔 What actually happens at a Couch2Court session?
🤔 Has it been too long since I last played netball? (Spoiler alert, nope! 😍)

You might have spotted some changes around here. 👀
This year we turned 10 years old. 🥳 And we realised, we’d changed a lot as a company.
In 2024, as we celebrated our 20,000th Couch2Court® participant and reached 1,600 active weekly teams, we realised we had outgrown our original identity. What we offered transcended simple league management – we had created a movement celebrating women, fostering community, and enabling personal growth through netball.
This realisation led to our transformation into BLOOM netball. While netball remains our foundation, what blossoms through our community is something far more meaningful: a space where women can truly flourish. 🌱💪
Happy 70th birthday to our wonderful umpire Marinda! 🎉🎂🎊
Marinda umpires in both our Caldicot & Stoke Gifford leagues, and one of the teams in Caldicot surprised her for her big day with these goodies! 🥰
What do you call someone who injures themselves at their Couch2Court session - so can't play for the whole season - but still turns up every week to cheer on a team of people they met for the first time at the taster session?
A BLOOMIN' LEGEND, that's what!! 🤩😍
Meet Emily, she plays in our Tettenhall league, and despite being out of play, she still came along to support her brand new team each week - and not just that, she's supportive of all of the teams in the league! 🥰
Here's what her teammates had to say about her 👇
"Emily has been our biggest support and cheerleader despite her injury. She shows up for our games every week, encourages us all and just cheers us all on, what more could we ask for! I just can't wait for her to play, she is going to be a great addition to our Red Rebels.|
"I joined the team late and Emily was the first person I met at my first match. I told her how nervous I was but she was so lovely reassuring me! Her positivity and support really boost our confidence each week and we can’t wait to play our first match with her!"
"You’ve been there from the very start, cheering us on, lifting us up, and genuinely caring about every one of us. Honestly, we couldn’t do this every week without you- you are such a huge part of this team. The support you give us, your positivity, and that warm, beaming smile never go unnoticed."
Emily, you're truly BLOOMIN' amazing! And good luck for your first game back after your injury! 🌸
