Marie
After qualifying as a netball coach in 2001 I have been lucky enough to take my passion of netball to wherever I have lived around the world. I started with a prep school in Berkshire, then in 2007 we moved to Calgary and I ended up coaching the men’s team which represented Alberta at the Canadian Nationals. Soon after we moved to the Cayman Islands where my daughter qualified for the U21 National team so yet again I ended up on the sidelines, traveling with the team to the World Championships in Glasgow in 2013 was a highlight.
