As a fellow athlete and a podiatrist, I know the demands netball places on your feet. Those quick pivots, explosive jumps, and sudden stops can take a toll, and the right footwear is your first line of defense against injuries.


Why Netball Shoes Matter:

Netball isn't just another sport – it's a unique blend of agility, power, and precision.  That's why your shoes need to be more than just "sneakers." Netball shoes are designed specifically for the sport's multi-directional movements and high-impact landings.


Features to Look For:

  • Cushioning: Absorbs shock on landings, protecting your joints from repetitive stress.

  • Lateral Support and heel counters: Helps prevent ankle rolling during those sharp cuts and turns.

  • Traction: Grippy outsoles give you the confidence to accelerate, stop, and change direction quickly.


Understanding Your Feet:

Everyone's feet are different, and that's where we come in. As podiatrists, we have the expertise to assess your foot type, gait, and any existing issues. We can recommend the perfect netball shoes to optimize your performance and prevent injuries.


Don't Let Foot Pain Sideline You:

If you're experiencing foot pain, don't ignore it. It could be a sign of an underlying problem that can worsen if left untreated. We can help diagnose the issue and get you back on the court feeling your best.
