Yes. Squads can include girls and boys, but England Netball's Bee Netball rules for Fliers and Stingers allow no more than 2 boys on court at any one time.
The Stingers rotation guidance covers this too: if a squad has 3 boys, the coach skips any rotation that would put all three on court together.
