We have added 3 Player Development Programmes to our Severn Stars Player Journey. These PDPs will be based one in the north, one central and one south of our franchise region. Our PDPs will be U18. These will provide an opportunity for players who may not have made the U19/U17 squads to be supported for another year or talented athletes that want to train and play at a higher level.
From our PDPs, we will select a U18 development squad who will train once a month and play against other franchises. Our PDPs will also provide the opportunity for talented U15s (following conversations with County U15 PDPs) to join the England Netball pathway to enable them to be selected for the U15 SS School Game Squad
(Must be born 2006 – 2010)
