Superball 2026
Come along to the University Arena on Saturday 21 March 2026 to support the King’s 1st and 2nd VIII as they take on RGS in the annual Superball netball fixture.
The arena doors will open at 1530, with the 2nd VIII teams playing at 1600. The 1st teams’ fixture will start at 1800.
Tickets are £10 for adults and £6 for concessions (with an additional booking fee). They are on sale from 1800 on 6 March, and may be purchased via this link HERE
Event management: The organisation and management of the event will be in the hands of the University of Worcester, in consultation with senior members of staff from King’s and RGS. The normal Arena Stadium Rules will apply before, during and after the match, with additional measures taken to help protect the safety of younger members of the crowd.
Attendance: All pupils, past and present, of the King’s Foundation are welcome to attend the match. Children in the Prep Schools, the Lower Years and the Lower Remove must be under the direct supervision of one or more adult (over 18 years old) and should remain seated with this adult for the duration of the match.
Conduct: This is a School event. The King’s School Worcester expects very high standards of behaviour to be set and maintained by all supporters. This includes the sharing of appropriate supportive comments only with nothing of a derogatory nature being directed at the umpires or the opposition. In addition, the University of Worcester will enforce their one person/one seat rule and aisles and exits must be kept clear.
Access and Parking: The Arena has a dedicated car park, accessed via the Arena entrance on Hylton Road where spectators can park. In the event that this car park is full, spectators are advised to park in the nearby University of Worcester car park or the City Council car parks. Directions to the car parks for Arena events are also signposted throughout the City. There is a drop-off zone located in immediately next to the Arena and ample parking for disabled visitors on the Arena site.
Refreshments: Refreshments will be available. This is a School event and pupils may not consume or purchase alcohol. Furthermore, only adults over the age of 21 will be allowed to purchase alcoholic drinks and no alcohol may be purchased for spectators under the age of 21. No alcohol may be brought onto the premises and all those entering the ground are liable to be searched. Stewards will rigorously enforce these rules.
Match Postponement: The University reserves the right to postpone the match. The School will alert families to such a postponement, giving as much advance warning as we are able. Please be aware that refunds are unlikely to be available in the event of a postponement.
