GBWorst social league Worst social league This league is entirely focused on taking money and not on playing. The central team are slow to respond, assign teams, get the right level for players or teams. There is also the intimidation about signing up for leagues and potential debt that I’ve never experienced anywhere else! Local managers & umpires are for the most part very poor. Run through Facebook, they resort to posts about teams or players when they’re not happy. There is no involvement in helping to organise fill ins, which could make sure people always got a game. It really feels like they couldn’t care less as long as they get your money. I’m sure the only reason people join is because it’s local. I’d recommend alternative leagues if available.

GBWould give 0 star rating if I could Would give 0 star rating if I could. Play netball only care about taking everyone’s money. My daughter could umpire better than their umpires. They happily admit their umpires do not need to be qualified even in the basic Into officiating course! Coordinator of the Worthing league is rude. She uses the weather as reasons why she is not making contact/ replayed ball calls. Games are dangerous through the poor umpiring. You try and complain and they don’t care. There are so many other leagues with qualified umpires and so much cheaper. They won’t tell anyone if games are cancelled till 7pm (first game starts at that time) games are cancelled due to lack of umpires. The amount you pay per game you expect an umpire to know what they are doing. Stay clear of play netball.

GBIf I could give a 0 star rating I… If I could give a 0 star rating I would. Games cancelled last minute, venues not booked. At one point they held our money hostage for 4 weeks while they tried to source another venue for the final 2 games. Pay for 2 umpires per game and we're lucky if we get 1 or the game is cancelled last minute. No co-ordinator, costs are extortionate of £90 upfront fees per player for 14 games. We have to give them 1 weeks notice if we want to leave the league yet they can give us notice that games are cancelled at 6.31pm when the games start at 6.30. Shocking! Save your money ladies and find a pay as you play league.

GBGo elsewhere unless you want short games and bad umpires Awful set up. Awful umpires. Paying for a league when umpires regularly cut games short. There’s little warmth and definitely an air of them wanting to just finish and get home. Many have a bad attitude too. Often games are cancelled at short notice due to lack of empires which is super frustrating. Courts are often wet with no prep to clear puddles. This centralised system has little idea what is going on at each location and appear to just be happy taking the money, providing a very shoddy service and umpires.

GBWould give 0 stars if I could Would give 0 stars if I could. Week after week our matches have been cancelled as close as an hour before we were due to play, put down to reasons such as ‘lack of umpires’. On more than one occasion we’ve shown up ready to play, and been locked out of the hall, or found the court unsuitable to play and had to leave, with no communication from Play Netball. Dozens of members of the league have emailed complaining time and time again, and get given the same weak excuses from the ‘organizers’. I would absolutely avoid Play Netball like the plague, it’s a complete shambles
