Unfortunately, many people stop participating in netball or other sports as soon as they leave school, and never return to it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A new scheme organised by Netball England is helping people to rediscover their love for the sport, or to try it for the first time. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.englandnetball.co.uk\/play\/back-to-netball\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2018Back to Netball<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u2019 is a way to stay active and meet new friends, and can be particularly helpful for people who are trying to settle into a new community away from their loved ones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One participant of the scheme, Louise, explains how finding Back to Netball helped her to recover from a spiral of anxiety and depression following a move to Exeter during the Covid pandemic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.englandnetball.co.uk\/joining-a-back-to-netball-group-after-house-move-helps-louise-battle-anxiety-and-find-community\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Louise said<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: \u201cUnfortunately, I started to get into a cycle of anxiety and depression where I lost a lot of confidence in myself including getting out and meeting people which led to me feeling very lonely. It had been 3 years since moving and I felt like I hadn\u2019t moved forward at all in building my \u2018new life\u2019 in Devon.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She adds: \u201cAnyway, I was browsing away on my phone, and I happened to see this Back to Netball advert, and I was immediately drawn in to find out more. I\u2019ve always enjoyed being active and being with people so already it ticked a few boxes for me.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Louise explains that the emphasis was on fun with no pressure to be super-competitive. She blossomed in the welcoming and supportive atmosphere, and netball is now a regular part of her life, helping her to socialise, exercise, and manage her mental health.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Looking for <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Elmbridge netball classes<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">? <a href=\"https:\/\/sistersnsport.com\/coaching\">Please visit our website today<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> Netball classes are about more than just sports coaching; they are also a social activity that brings people together to learn, keep fit, and form friendships.
