Netball has always been a popular sport participation wise, but at the same time has struggled for exposure and recognition in many ways. What do you think can be done to change that at local and elite level?
The big sports revolve around a lot of money, so i hate to say but the sport needs big sponsors to get behind it.

My favourite Social event to be involved in at my Club is
The annual ball is a lot of fun but it’s all very social, the club is quite tight and get along very well so even trainings are fun.
