BEDFORDSHIRE COUNTY INVITATIONAL TOURNAMENT 2026

What a fantastic day at the Bedfordshire County Invitational Tournament with 384 athletes taking part in a superb celebration of netball.  The sunshine certainly added to the occasion, but it was the outstanding standard of play, teamwork and sportsmanship on display throughout the day that truly made the event special.

The tournament was a huge success, with many positive messages received praising the organisation, atmosphere and smooth running of the day.  It was wonderful to see players, coaches, officials, volunteers and supporters all contributing to such a positive and enjoyable event.
