Our Regional Team

For the game

The Regional Management Board (RMB) leads our work. It consists of voluntary, elected and appointed trustees. The RMB is responsible for the management and development of Netball in the South West, identifying and meeting the needs of everyone involved in netball to enhance participation experiences and encourage the uptake of the sport. The trustees oversee the strategic future of netball in the South West, organise the Regional Leagues and continually seek to develop coaches, umpires and volunteers.
