Netball Super League’s Post

💭 “With a bold new name and brand, this competition will see some of the country’s most talented developing players take to court where they will proudly represent their club colours, competing week in, week out and developing vital experience along the way.” – Claire Nelson, Managing Director of the Netball Super League. The Netball Super League (NSL) has revealed further information regarding the U23 feeder League that was announced as part of the wider plans ahead of the 2025 season. Confirmed as the NXT Gen League, the competition has been developed to deliver extended opportunities for emerging talent, nurture and develop the next generation of world class players and provide a pipeline of talent for the NSL. Fixtures and squad line-ups as well as the new brand identity for the newly named NXT Gen League have been revealed today. Here are five things you need to know: ⚔️ The League will feature nine teams from Birmingham Panthers, LexisNexis Cardiff Dragons, London Mavericks, London Pulse Netball Super League Team, Manchester Thunder Netball, Loughborough Lightning, NIC Leeds Rhinos, Nottingham Forest and Team Bath Netball. 🤝 All teams have revealed their squads on social media today.
