The NWYC2025 takes place from 19 – 28 September 2025.
The new Logo serves to welcome the 20 competing teams from around the world, the emblem serves as a beacon for inspiration, uniting everyone in the celebration of youth, athleticism and diversity.
Netball continues to grow globally, the Netball World Cup in South Africa in July 2023 last year delivered the most successful sponsorship programme to date with broadcast reaching more people around the world than ever before.
Mrs Hook said ‘I have been involved with Gibraltar Netball since 2006 as Chairman of Europe Netball. It is an honour and privilege to have delivered the launch for the pinnacle elite competition for our world youth in a place I have supported netball growth over nearly 2 decades.
I am keen to continue to use this passion for our sport to inspire all the athletes at Notre Dame who play netball; in a school representative team, at netball club or during PE to love the sport and enjoy it. Netball helps develop teamwork, gives confidence and teaches resilience, all skills we need in our everyday lives.
