County Cup
The County Cup had previously been presented to a County team/squad for success or endeavour. Since we no longer have County squads, the Committee decided that, in future the Cup would be presented to a Middlesex County Club or team.
2019: A very long established Netball Club, this year’s winner supports several senior teams and has a growing junior section which is gaining respect among top teams in competitions. In order to support the development of the Club as a whole, members are actively encouraged to gain umpiring and/or coaching awards and experience, with considerable success. The Club is outward looking, arranging for external coaches to provide sessions, supporting those suitably qualified members to use their skill beyond their Club and local area and promoting grass root netball by organising an event for beginners, juniors and mums and dads! The wide view of the Club extends to having one of their members recently appointed as a non-executive Board Member of England Netball. Congratulations to Club of the Year, Old Fincunians, the County Cup winners for 2018-19.
2018: A large, comparatively young Club that offers netball opportunities from High 5 through Juniors/Youth to adults, encouraging the development of play, umpiring, Coaching and volunteering. Their Senior teams play in Middlesex and Surrey and the Juniors/Youth in Middlesex and L&SE Region.
Talent development is very strong and effective with representatives from the Club involved with Borough Teams at the London Youth Games, and at all levels of the Performance Pathway. Having qualified through the L&SER U16 League the Club came a very creditable 9th at the National U16 Clubs’ Finals.
The 2018 Club of the Year is Grasshoppers Netball Club.
2017: A large and successful Club with a myriad of teams scattered through the Leagues from National Premier Clubs', London & South East Region, Middlesex County to multiple local and participation leagues it supports netball activity for a very wide range of ability, development and levels of commitment.

An organised, talented and sporting Club with the Game at its heart. The Winner this year - Poly Netball Club.
