Cedar Mount Academy / Melland High School

Netball is up there as one of the most popular sports in the UK, and though you’re spoilt for choice in Manchester, Cedar Mount Academy has a great Hard (Macadam) netball court.

The venue is great for newcomers to the sport, or just for casual games with friends, but would also serve as the ideal home venue for your team’s competitive league matches. Netball nets are provided alongside the clearly marked court, but if you require a netball or bibs contact the facility directly to check if they’re available to hire for the time of your booking. So if you live or work in south west Manchester, you should give this court a try.


Free parking is available for sports players arriving by car. Parking spaces can, however, be harder to find during peak times and it’s worth confirming with the venue before turning up to save any unwanted costs.

The facility is available to hire on a pay as you play basis which means that there are no additional membership fees involved. This makes it ideal for those wanting to play on a more casual basis. Simply book your session when you like and turn up to play.

There is the opportunity to make a block booking at Cedar Mount Academy for those who wish to secure a pitch for the same time every week. This is an ideal option for teams who wish to hold regular training sessions or just to have a guaranteed weekly game with your friends. The process is a lot smoother as you don’t have to worry about paying before each session every week. Block bookings usually require advanced payment and last for 10 consecutive weeks. However our team will try to find the best possible option for you if you require a different number of weeks.

There are well maintained changing rooms at the venue for use upon arrival. This is perfect for those heading to their session straight after work in the evenings or during their lunch break, making the transition from work to play that much easier.

The nearest station to the venue is Gorton Education Village bus stop, which makes travelling via public transport a very good option. The venue is just a short walk away the station and makes for an ideal warm-up and warm down exercise to bookend your game.
