Trials for the first Isle of Man men’s netball squad takes place at Bemahague on Sunday, February 16.

Netball development officer Claire Battye said: ’This is an exciting new development for netball in the island.

’We have a mixed Business League in the summer and a mixed Christmas tournament so we want to build on the skills some of these men have acquired.

’I’d like to encourage any guys, experienced or beginners, to come down, and have a go.’

The session takes place in the school’s sports hall at 9.30am.
