World Record Attempt
World Record Attempt
The Challenge
We are doing this attempt to hopefully raise the profile of netball to youngsters in the area. We would like to raise £10,000 for charity, this will be split between Bristol Children's Hospital and Cancer Research UK. If we manage the 56 hours we will enter the Guinness Book of World Records.
The Record
The Guiness World Record for Longest Netball Marathon, is held by the Capital NUNS Netball Club of London, who played for 55 hours.
The Charity
All money raised will be donated to the Wallace & Gromit Grand Appeal, which raises funds for the Bristol Royal Hospital for Children.
The Rules
Play must be continuous between the same two teams.
There is a maximum of 12 players per team and 5-7 players per team permitted on court at any one time.
Quarter time changeovers remained within the rules of netball (e.g. 3-5mins), with some additional breaks for extra changeover time as advised by the Guinness World Record office.
No players may leave the courtside during the duration of the attempt - with the exception of 5 minute comfort breaks, timed by independent witnesses.
