HISTORY

The Original brand Gilbert is derived from William Gilbert (1799-1877) who had a boot and shoemakers shop in the high street next to Rugby School and started making rugby balls for the school out of hand stitched, four-panel, leather casings and real pigs' bladders.

In the 1990's embraced and perfected the use of new synthetic technologies and Gilbert launched their first ever netball range and has rapidly grown to the worldwide premier netball brands worldwide.
