Debbie Hallas, Managing Director at Manchester Thunder and Netball UK commented: “Mizuno have developed a superb range of netball shoes that offer all our players the grip & support needed to play safely and gain an all-important advantage over their opponents. Just a note that the netball court doesn't serve sneaker heads with a breath of range like like running does. How should netball shoes fit? The exclusive Mizuno Wave Technology is key to ensuring maximum stability on a netball court while the Mizuno Enerzy & U4icX midsole compound provides unrivalled softness and dynamic cushioning feeling.For injury prevention a key component in any netball shoe is a flat and rounded sole, engineered for the lateral movements in netball gives you a smooth roll-off from heel to toe.Mizuno are the leading manufacturer of junior netball shoes, offering some fantastic colours in the Stealth Star Junior Netball Shoe. In 2019, Mizuno in conjunction with Netball UK led the Make the Swap campaign where they found that over one million netballers are wearing the wrong shoes for their sport! Sounds crazy doesn't it but it's not.

Netball players need ‘court specific’ footwear. Think sprinting tiny distances, jumping, spinning, teetering around the towering Goal Defence - you know the score.Mizuno have invested significantly in netball in recent years and netball trainers has been at the forefront of this investment. Worn and endorsed by many of the top netball players including Eleanor Cardwell (England Roses and Adelaide Thunderbirds) and Joyce Mvula (Malawi Queens and Central Pulse), Mizuno netball shoes offer an excellentrange catering for all levels. Netball shoes are designed to protect your feet from the particular stresses and strains encountered when playing or training for netball. They are also designed to give you more traction and grip on the various surfaces that netball is played on to increase your ability to play the best that you can. In 2020 Nike entered the market of netball trainers aligning their indoor court shoes which work well with the lateral movements of netball. You won't move too far in one go but the game demands a huge amount of micro-movement. In this sense, tennis shoes can also work well. If your looking for game-ready peak performance, we're afraid your standard running trainers just won't do your match justice.

Chartered Physiotherapist, Andy Curtis, comments: “Running shoes are simply not designed for the ‘stop start’ motions in netball, where players are focused on change of direction and need stability as they come down from the air. Choosing a netball shoe rather than a running shoe, means players are more likely to have a stable knee and ankle position when they land - reducing the likelihood of injuries in those two areas.” In a bid to ensure more women and girls get the most from their sport, global sports brand, Mizuno have launch a #MakeTheSwap campaign to highlight the issues around choosing the correct shoes for netball.Netball UK are the official netball footwear supplier to Manchester Thunder, Northern Ireland, The Scottish Thistles & Strathclyde Sirens, Welsh Feather and Celtic Dragons.
