Meghan Markle keeps her high heels on to play netball as she and Prince Harry join young sports coaches at awards ceremony

Meghan Markle today visited Loughborough University with Prince Harry for an awards ceremony for apprentice sports coaches.

The Duchess of Sussex had on a blue top by Oscar de la Renta, trousers by Altuzarra and stiletto heeled shoes. But her heels and formal outfit did not stop her from taking part in a netball drill.

The Coach Core Awards at Loughborough University aims to harness the power of sport, and its ability to change lives and empower young people. The event includes masterclasses from sporting legends such as marathon runner Paula Radcliffe, tennis star Laura Robson and England netballer Eboni Beckford-Chambers.

Coach Core was established by the Royal Foundation in 2012. It is an apprenticeship programme that helps young people aged between 16 and 24 who are not in education, employment, or training to build a career. It was inspired by the impact of the 2012 Olympic Games in London.
