    What not to say to netballers…

    Netball’s just basketball for girls. You’re too short to be a shooter. It’s a non-contact sport isn’t it? In the first episode of NetBallers, Sasha, Kadeen and Betty get to the bottom of some of the most common netball stereotypes. The girls are also joined by our first secret netball fan of the season, as we chat Tracey Neville, Love Island and acrylics.
