Isle of Man Netball has announced a new three-year partnership with Capital International.

The deal will support the performance pathway and the Manx Rams national squad.

The partnership represents a significant investment in the future of performance netball in the island, supporting the journey from aspiring young athletes through the ASPIRE and performance programmes to representing the island on the international stage with the Manx Rams.

Built around a shared ambition to support the 'journey to success', the partnership will help Isle of Man Netball continue to invest in player development, coaching, training, competition and the performance environment needed for athletes and the national squad to fulfil their potential.

Capital International's involvement will extend beyond financial support. The two organisations will work together across content and marketing, community engagement, events and staff initiatives, creating opportunities for Capital's team to become actively involved in the journey over the three-year partnership.

The investment forms part of Isle of Man Netball's long-term strategy to build a strong and sustainable performance pathway, develop athletes capable of competing successfully internationally and support the Manx Rams' ambitions on the world stage.

Speaking about the sponsorship deal, Jones said: 'We’re incredibly proud to be partnering with Capital International. Their support is a strong endorsement of our ambitions for netball in the Isle of Man.

'This investment will help strengthen our performance initiatives and the opportunities provided within them; supporting players, coaches, officials and the services around our teams.

'This support is crucial if our people, players and teams are to realise their potential through the pursuit of international success while proudly representing the Isle of Man.

'This is also the start of a relationship that goes beyond financial sponsorship. Capital shares our ambition, and we’re excited about what we can build together over the next three years.'

David Long, group strategy officer at Capital International, added: 'We are delighted to support Isle of Man Netball and to play a part in its journey to success.

'The ambition and work taking place at every level to turn potential into performance at the highest level is truly inspiring.

'We see this as much more than financial sponsorship. We're looking forward to supporting the players, coaches and people behind the scenes, while finding opportunities for our own team to get involved along the way.

'We're excited to see where that journey takes Isle of Man Netball over the next three years.'
