About Us
🏐Welcome to Canterbury Christ Church Netball Club🏐
Welcome to C4 Netball! We're looking forward to meeting you in September!
And if you're returning, welcome back! 💕
We are a friendly, welcoming club that invites people with any level of netball experience. From those who have never played netball before, all the way to people who have been playing for years. We have a team for you!
This year, we have four teams playing in BUCS
Our 1st Team play in South Eastern Tier 3(B)
Our 2nd Team play in South Eastern Tier 5(A)
Our 3rd Team play in South Eastern Tier 7(B)
And our 4th Team play in South Eastern Tier 10
Every Wednesday, we have a social night where all members can get together and have fun!
C4 Netball is the perfect way to make new friends, socialise, and take part in exercise throughout your university experience 😍
In the 2023/2024 season, C4 Netball was awarded the 2024 Charity Award for our charity events, which included our Great Gatsby Ball and our annual Charity Netball Tournament. We are excited to continue this initiative this coming academic year!
At the end of the season, we all get to look forward to Varsity! A chance to showcase our talent and hard work against the University of Kent. It's a great opportunity to get involved and support all C4 teams.
