We are delighted to share the news that Wales Under 21 will be returning to court later this month as the team prepares for a behind-closed-doors performance competition camp from 27-30 July at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield. This will provide an opportunity for Wales U21 to return to competitive action against counterparts from Scotland and England following the disappointment of the cancellation of the 2021 Netball World Youth Cup.

Alanah Heath-Drury |
Ceri Evans |
Charlotte Jennings-Evans |
Darcie Dunn |
Ellice Gallagher |
Ellie Blackwell |
Esme Cornelius |
Georgia Hellerman |
Megan Evans |
Nan Williams |
Nia Evans |
Sapphira Fisher |
Carys Allen |
Zoe Matthewman |
Millie Carter |
Macey Lane (Reserve) |
Sophie Margetts (Reserve) |
Martha Scott (Reserve) |
Nikki Lloyd, Wales U21 head coach was excited to see her squad return to action. She said: “We all feel very privileged and lucky and are excited to be participating in this competition which provides opportunities on and off the court. It will be critical to the long term development of our Under 21 athletes and I would like to congratulate those selected.
“The selection process was highly competitive and I would like to recognise the hard work, commitment and high standards demonstrated by the whole long squad over the last 18 months during difficult circumstances.
“I look forward to working with the squad and management over the coming weeks ensuring we maximise all opportunities available to us as we look to move forward with purpose into the next four year cycle.”
