ENG run netball leagues and school holiday camps / work shops. I support the leaders with whatever tasks need completing - such as running warm-ups, co-ordinating drills, and helping to coach the children. I ensure that all the children are included in the activities, and everyone feels involved.
I support ENG in this ad-hoc way when school work allows. In October 2024, I was fortunate to travel to Northern Ireland to support camps out there.
Through this role, I have had good exposure to top quality netball coaching and leadership role models - some having played for national sides.
