NSL 2025 Preview
At the start of a bold new era for the Netball Super League, Lindsey Chapman catches up with a host of faces from across the competition, starting with Nottingham Forest Netball Head Coach Chelsea Pitman. Chelsea shares an insight into the culture she’s working to build at the club and tells us exactly which match-up she is most looking forward to in NSL 2025!
Lindsey then sits down with two international players who are both joining the Netball Super League this year: London Mavericks’ defender Chelsea Blackman and new club Birmingham Panthers’ shooter Gabby Sinclair. Chelsea and Gabby discuss the introduction of the Super Shot and how it changes and challenges their decision making in the last five minutes of each quarter and also reveal what we can expect from each of their squads as they take to court this season.
Finally, Lindsey chats to Managing Director of the NSL, Claire Nelson, who gives the inside scoop on what the final preparations have looked like as we get closer to the start of the season and explains exactly how we can all be a part of making this new era of the Netball Super League a success.
