Story

Hi my name is Antonia and I am in my first year at Durham university, studying natural science and playing for the Durham University Netball Club.

This summer I will be spending 8 weeks in Zambia helping to develop netball in the community and improving people’s lives through sport. I’m very excited about this opportunity and I am very passionate about the benefits that sport and teamwork can bring to a community. I will be helping coach young people as well as working with the other coaches in Zambia to help improve and sustain the quality of netball for the young people.
