This week on The Best Netball Podcast EVER!, Krystine and Carla chat with Welsh Feathers star Leah Middleton, whose Aussie roots and unstoppable drive have taken her from the netball courts of Queensland to the Super League. Leah opens up about her recovery from a major ankle injury, life in the UK, the growing professionalism of the sport, and her hopes for the Commonwealth Games.

YOUR HOSTS

Krystine Strama aka Kris / princess  Netball-obsessed, I’ve been hitting the court for over 15 years — and I’ve just celebrated the big 5-0.  By day, I’m an HR Manager; by night, I’m a netball playing fine-dining enthusiast and self-proclaimed connoisseur of wine. One day, you’ll see me living my other dream: starring in a soap opera.

Carla Garey

A self-confessed netball addict, I’ve been playing for nearly 14 years and basically live and breathe the sport (my husband insists on calling it “a hobby,” but we all know better 😆).

When I’m not on court, I’m running multiple businesses, wrangling my five kids, and squeezing 20 tasks into every day. I work at 100 miles an hour and get more done before lunch than most people manage all week — fuelled entirely by Diet Coke and donuts.
