Camp Ethos
Trish and her team are strong believers in teaching children the importance of humility, respect and sportsmanship within a team environment, so by the end of the week’s camp your child will not only have developed their core netball skills but will also have learned many important values associated with sport.
Head Coach Trish Wilcox
02
Born and raised in South Wales, Trish Wilcox lived over half her life in New Zealand and while coaching her three daughters’ netball teams, was encouraged to pursue a career in netball coaching. After working her way through the Netball New Zealand coaching levels and achieving the Level 3 award, she went on to successfully coach Auckland provisional age group teams who won a national title. Trish went on to coach the Samoa U21 team at the World Youth Netball Championship in Glasgow in 2013, achieving the highest placing by a Samoan U21 team at a World Youth Cup, which was followed by an opportunity to work with Cook Island Netball and coaching the national team for a Pacific Netball Series. A lifelong ambition of representing Wales, her country of birth, was realised shortly after, when Trish took over the reins coaching Wales at the Netball World Cup in Sydney, Australia in 2015. During this campaign, Wales achieved 7th in the world, their highest ever placing at a World Cup and during her tenure moved up to 7th in the world rankings, their highest ever world ranking in the modern version of the game. She is the current Head of Netball at Fettes College and the current Head Coach at Edinburgh Academicals, who are the reigning Scottish Cup champions. Trish is passionate about sport and the important role it plays in the lives of young people on and off the court.
Core Skill Development
The camp is designed to be high energy and fun with lots of interaction including team challenges, micro skills sessions, balance and coordination and game play. Players’ confidence will grow throughout the week through the development and improvement of their core netball skills as well as receiving specialist instruction from high performance international coaches.
