Premier League

The Premier League has been running since the 2006/2007 season when Divisions 1 and 2 were launched, and has been expanded for the 2010/2011 season with the introduction of Division 3. Premier League Netball is the highest level of club netball in the country and the teams that make up the 3 divisions have come through a gruelling county, regional and national pathway to take one of the coveted 30 places.

The Champion of Premier League 2 and 3 each season automatically gains promotion into the next league up, whilst the team at the bottom of the league table in Division 1 and 2 is automatically relegated to the division below. Playoffs between Divisions 1 and 2, and 2 and 3 determine which league each team will play in for the next season, whilst the winning teams from each region meet the bottom three from Division 3 in a playoff weekend to decide who will take their place in the National League and who will return to their Regional leagues.

Netball Talent League (NTL)

The Netball Talent League is in association with England Netball's nine regions and eight of the nine franchises participating in The Co-operative Netball Superleague. The aim of the NTL is to create a competitive environment in which young netballers aged from 14-19 can experience high pressure games on a weekly basis throughout the year. England's most promising young netballers will have an opportunity to hone their skills and impress the national selectors en route to the senior game through participation in this elite youth competition.

The league, which runs alongside The Netball Superleague, features ten regionally based teams of young netballing stars. In addition to teams linked to eight existing Netball Superleague franchises, there are two further sides, based in the South region and the West Midlands. Each team will play nine matches during the season. The first and last rounds will be played at a central venue and will be attended by talent spotters from England Netball.
