Alongside my playing background, I’ve coached across a wide range of settings - from leading Durham University’s 1st team to Head of Netball roles at Sutton High, Highgate School, and St Benedict’s, and working as assistant coach for the British Colleges National Squad and Tyne & Wear County coach.
