Tracey Neville

yeah and a little side note on tyler or i met her bumped into her in glasgow at a sandwich shop and i've honestly never come across someone that comes across as warm as she did in two minutes of chatting to someone she just seemed like the nicest person ever You know

what? Tracey Neville, when we did Super Cup, was speaking about having Tyler in her environment at Thunderbirds, I think it was.

And she said, like, even if she's not on the court, she's so integral to, like, just helping the other middies and the culture.

She's a really, really good leader, even if it's not immediately obvious with volume, say.

So I started in the northwest really at Manchester Thunder or Northern Thunder or what, you know, [laughs] Northwest Netball, whichever environment you wanna say really up there.

And, you know, I was with Tracey Neville, Karen Gregg, and some really experienced people in the northwest that really shaped the way I, I looked and saw things.

But most importantly, as boring as it sounds, I got drummed in about process and really process-driven about selection and because it means so much to any athlete, regardless of age and their support network, you have to really try and get it right and what it looks and feels like, and it should be a positive experience and not a negative one and showing, you know, the level of where any player wants to aspire to be.

So I think that really shaped me at that point, I guess, that I actually felt like I brought some things into that England environment.
