England Netball has secured a two year title sponsorship of the National Schools Netball Championships with Eteach.com. Eteach are the leading online education job board for schools and colleges and help thousands of teachers find their jobs each year. Schools and Colleges advertise and attract quality leaders, teachers and support staff from their database of over 500,000 registered members.

Paul Howells, former PE teacher and Chief Executive Officer for Eteach commented, “We are thrilled to be working with England Netball on this event and are looking forward to progressing our association with the sport. This is a perfect fit for the Eteach brand reaching teachers and future teachers through netball. My wife and daughters are avid netball players and fans so I know how important it is to encourage and support the sport at the “grass roots” level. ”

Eteach have previously supported Netball Superleague and International Netball Series with the purchase of perimeter branding at the televised games. The role of title sponsor of the National Schools Netball Championships is a strategic development of their relationship with England Netball, giving them greater access to the grassroots netball audience.

Paul Clark, Chief Executive Officer of England Netball said, “We’re thrilled to have Eteach on board. Commercially we can mutually benefit from the relationships we have in the education and schools sector. Together we can develop the Championships so that more players can get involved and we can continue to recognise our young talented players.”

The Eteach National Schools Netball Championship Finals will take place in March 2011 where regional winners from each age category; under 14, under 16 and under 19, will come together to compete for the Championships’ trophies.
