Built for the Big Moments: Valley Netballās Explosive Debut Year in the UAE
In a region where netball is rapidly becoming the heartbeat of female youth sport, one name has dominated the conversation over the last 12 months: Valley Netball.
Launched by UAE Falcons Captain Carly Lewis just one year ago, Valley Netball entered the UAE scene with a clear mission: to combine a community-first culture with high-quality coaching. The results have been nothing short of spectacular. From a “new club on the block” to a major force in local leagues, Valley has quickly built a reputation for tactical discipline and an unmistakable visual identity.
The Power of the Dress
Central to that identity is the clubās partnership for their performance kit. Valley Netball took to the courts this year proudly sporting Unite Teamwear dressesāa choice that has set the standard for both comfort and professional aesthetics in the heat of the UAE season.
As the club looks toward its second year, this partnership remains a cornerstone of its “pro-club” feel. With the evolution of the brand into J20 Sports, Valley athletes are perfectly positioned to lead the way in the next generation of high-performance netball apparel.
A Year of Milestones
It wasn’t just about looking the part. On the court, Valley Netball has proven they belong in the competitive scene. Across multiple age groups, the club has challenged the established order in local club leagues, fostering a competitive spirit that has seen their membership numbers soar since day one.
“The growth we’ve seen in our first year has been incredible,” says Carly Lewis, founder of Valley Netball. “Seeing our players step onto the court in their Unite dresses gives them that sense of unity and pride that is so vital in a team sport. We are excited to continue this journey.”
