Netball Skirt: The Perfect Balance of Style and Performance

A great netball skirt needs to do more than just look good. On court, players and umpires are constantly moving — pivoting, accelerating, changing direction and staying focused on the game.

That’s why modern netball skirts are designed with performance in mind. The right fit, the right fabric and the right details can make a real difference in how comfortable and confident you feel throughout the match. When your uniform works with your movement, you stop thinking about it and focus completely on the game.

At Bumrs, we design netball apparel around how the sport is actually played — fast, physical and full of movement.

Meet the Bumrs Netball Umpire Skirt / Skort

Our Netball Umpire Skirt / Skort combines the clean look of a netball skirt with the practicality of built-in shorts.

The design features a flattering slimline front with soft pleats at the back, allowing the skirt to move naturally with your body during the game. The built-in shorts provide extra coverage and confidence, so you can focus on positioning and decision-making without distraction.

It’s a piece designed to feel easy, comfortable and functional — whether you're officiating or on court.

Designed for Both Umpires and Players

While the netball skirt has traditionally been associated with umpires, many players also enjoy the structure and polished look it brings to their netball outfit.

The Bumrs Netball Umpire Skirt / Skort was designed to support both. It offers a professional feel while still allowing freedom of movement, making it suitable for long games, tournament days and busy weekends at the courts.

Because netball gear should support the way you move — not restrict it.

Thoughtful Details That Make a Difference

Sometimes it’s the small details that make a piece of netball apparel truly practical.

Our netball skirt includes an adjustable waistband so you can find the fit that feels right for you. There’s also a slimline zip pocket at the back and pockets within the built-in shorts, giving you space for small essentials when needed.

We’ve even included a hidden audio link cable channel designed for cord access and secure placement. These thoughtful touches help keep things practical while maintaining the clean, streamlined look of the skirt.

Fabric That Works With You

Netball demands a lot from your gear, especially during long matches or busy training sessions.

The Bumrs Netball Umpire Skirt / Skort is made from a nylon and spandex blend designed to feel lightweight and comfortable on court. The fabric offers four-way stretch so it moves naturally with your body, while still maintaining its shape throughout the game.

It’s breathable, sweat-wicking and designed to help you stay comfortable even when the pace of the game picks up.

Built-In Shorts for Confidence on Court

One of the most important features of a modern netball skirt is the built-in shorts.

They provide that extra layer of coverage and security during jumps, pivots and fast movements around the court. Instead of worrying about adjusting your uniform mid-play, you can focus fully on the game.

For many players and umpires, this combination of skirt and shorts — often called a skort — creates the perfect balance between style and practicality.

A Skirt You’ll Reach For Again and Again

Some pieces of netball apparel quickly become favourites. The ones that feel comfortable from the moment you put them on, and that work just as well for one game as they do for a full day at the courts.

That’s exactly what we had in mind when creating the Netball Umpire Skirt / Skort at Bumrs. Designed to feel easy and comfortable, it’s a piece you’ll keep reaching for throughout the season.

Available in White, Navy, Black and OMG Pink, it brings together performance and style in a way that feels effortless.

Part of the Bumrs Netball Community

At Bumrs, everything we create is inspired by the netball community.

From training gear to match-day pieces, our goal is to design apparel that supports players, umpires and netball lovers at every level. The Netball Umpire Skirt / Skort reflects that approach — combining functionality, comfort and a clean look made for life on court.

Because when your uniform feels right, you can focus on what really matters: playing the game.
