Next session planned for March
Men of all ages and abilities were welcomed into the world of netball recently at trials for the Island's very first all-male team.
There, the new players learned basic skills like footwork, the three-second rule, and how to manage a Sunday-morning hangover while running, jumping, and having the constant, unapologetic sound of a whistle blown in close proximity.
Around twenty players turned up to try out, with more showing their interest online.
Player and netball umpire Michael Josem spoke to Rhian Evans:
