YOUNGSTERS with special needs are being invited to take part in a netball festival.

The festival will be held at Billingham Campus School, Teesside, on Saturday.

It has been organised by Teesside Sport, a partnership between Stockton, Hartlepool, Redcar and Cleveland and Middlesbrough borough council's.

Boys and girls aged 11 and 13 are all welcome to go along and take part in the event from 10am to 2pm.

The event will start with some coaching, depending on the disabilities of the children, followed by the chance to play some games in a more competitive situation.
