Once upon a time, the rules around netball kits for schools were super-strict, with girls only having the option of wearing uncomfortable stiff tunics and short skirts.<\/p>\n

Today, we know that having a comfy junior kit comes in many shapes and forms, but it\u2019s now proven that uniform flexibility also makes girls more attracted to the sport, and perform better, too.<\/p>\n

Research from a Victoria University survey<\/a> showed that girls participate less in sports if they feel self-conscious in their uniforms, with 85% of respondents preferring shorts and T-shirts during outside school sports, and 76% wanting their sporty uniform to make them feel ready to play.<\/p>\n

11 year-old Sienna Vivian said the choice was easy, as when she used to play netball in a dress she\u2019d get distracted trying to pull it down, and the dress was also shorter on her than on other players because she was taller.<\/p>\n

“As soon as we got the option, I knew I wanted to wear shorts because I’ve just always worried about my dress flying up,” Sienna said. “I can always change next season if I don\u2019t like it.”<\/p>\n

Because of Covid disrupting the season, Sienna\u2019s only just played her first game in her new uniform\u2014and loved it.<\/p>\n

“I felt much more comfortable,\u201d she said,\u00a0\u201cand I think I played the best game I’ve ever played in my whole life.”<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s what it\u2019s all about\u2014when you feel comfortable in your junior netball kit, you have the confidence to go into every game feeling like you can achieve anything.<\/p>\n
