KEEN netball players are being offered the chance to train for a new Kent squad.

Trinity School in Erith Road, Belvedere, is to become the coaching centre for an emerging Kent Netball District squad for players aged 12 to 16.

Squad members will get the chance to develop their skills by feeding into satellite and county academies, sanctioned by Kent Netball.

Selections for the new district squad will take place at the school on October 18 from 7.30pm to 9.30pm.

Potential players will have to apply via their school or club, as they have to be affiliated to Kent Netball.

They must be aged over 12 and under 16 at midnight on August 31/September 1.

The deadline for applications is October 12 and costs £3.

Squad sessions will be led by Natalie Rendle, who is an experienced youth netball coach in Bexley.
