Team Registration Form for 2015 Winter Season

Please find the registration forms below, for the new Cheshire West & Chester Junior Netball League for the 2015 winterseason.

The Cheshire West and Chester Junior Netball League is a new, weekly development league; specifically created for teams who are at a development stage rather than a performance stage and who are NOT entering the Cheshire Junior Netball League. (CJNL) If you are unsure as to whether this league is appropriate for your team, please email for more information.

Please note that the registration fee per team will be approximately £60, this is non-refundable. The price per team will be confirmed once we know how many teams are entering. The only circumstance in which a refund will be given for a team is if there are insufficient numbers to field a particular age group and the club concerned does not want their team to play in a higher age band.

Matches will be held weekly for 12 weeks between September 2015 and January 2016 at the new indoor Ellesmere Port Sports Village facility near Cheshire Oaks in Ellesmere Port.
