The squad is an exciting blend of current England under 17 and 19 players, former Maverick Youth players combined with exciting new faces!
Having the England Under 17 coaches in the Mavericks Youth coaching positions is a real bonus and it enables there to be real continuity and communication with the England Netball Talent programme enabling every player to reach their full potential
Training sessions are open for coaches to come and watch whether for ideas or just to see what is going on.
