Description

In this first episode, Krystine and Carla share how they met through netball, their journey from awkward first impressions to running a 220-member club, and their surprising experiences with injuries in a “non-contact” sport! They discuss growing the club, inclusivity, and the importance of making newcomers feel welcome, before diving into their Guinness World Record achievements and future charity goals.

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.
