Question from Emma in Leeds:

"How did you get into netball at a higher level, did someone talent spot you at school?"

Answer:

I was spotted playing for my school team at national schools by a club near where I lived. I then progressed to county trials, where I was noticed by an England scout at an intercounty tournament. For Superleague, I was recruited to Leeds Met Carnegie after being spotted by their coach Anna Newell.

I played for the QLD state team as well as the Brisbane North region. It certainly is different playing here - the styles of play are very different, which I sometimes struggle with. But I am going to come back for another go next season.
