Rams Move up in World Rankings

Isle of Man Netball has moved up to 35th in the world, marking another positive step for the Manx athletes following the release of the latest World Netball rankings.

The updated table reflects international results recorded between December 1, 2025 and March 1, 2026, a period that included the Manx Rams’ unbeaten run at the recent Quad Nations Series, where they defeated France, Malta and Switzerland.

The rise continues the steady progress of the island’s national programme, which has been expanding its international fixture list while strengthening pathways and participation at home.

Testament to The Club

Isle of Man Netball President Pip Cross said the new ranking was a testament to the commitment behind the sport.

“This rise in the rankings is a fantastic achievement and a reflection of the hard work and dedication of our players, coaches and volunteers,” she said.

“We are proud to see the Island represented on the international stage and remain focused on continuing that upward momentum.”

The organisation is now seeking sponsorship to support the next phase of its development and international ambitions. Businesses or organisations interested in partnership opportunities can contact commercial@netball.im.
