Favourite netball player of all time

Too many to choose from but I am biased towards the defenders

Before a game I always

Eat…can’t play without energy! And make sure I have a bit of chill time on my own with my ipod in

On game day I believe

The harder the challenge, the more we love it

If I wasn’t playing netball for the Melbourne Vixens I would be

An orthopaedic surgeon, no idea why but I think it’s amazing what they can do to fix the majority of the injuries we have as athletes

The number one thing I believe in is

Hard work pays off
