Introducing our 2026 Ultima Storm Junior Netball Coaching Team! 
We’re thrilled to unveil an incredible coaching lineup for our junior netballers this coming season — a team full of experience, passion and genuine love for developing young players.
Under 13 & Under 13 Reserves:
A warm welcome to Emily Edwards and Malia Codling — an exciting new coaching duo joining the Storm family! We can’t wait to see these two step into their roles and lead our youngest netball stars. With experience, game knowledge, and ability to create a whole lot of fun, Emily and Malia are sure to make 2026 a memorable year for our U13 squad.
Under 15:
Returning as head coach in 2026 is Louisa Frost, bringing her wealth of netball knowledge and continued dedication to this developing group. Joining her is newly appointed assistant coach Trine Conway, whose passion, playing experience, and game insight will be a huge asset. A dynamic duo ready to guide our U15 girls to new heights!
Under 17:
Back for their third season together, Rebecca Grey (Coach) and Tayla Foster (Assistant Coach) return after leading this group to a premiership and a preliminary final in the past 2 seasons! Their experience, encouragement, and genuine passion for the game make them a powerhouse pair — and we’re so excited to see what 2026 brings for the Under 17 girls!
NEW IN 2026 – Storm Netball Development Academy
We’re proud to launch our first ever Netball Development Academy, led this season by Tayla Foster. This optional in-season academy will focus on skill development, game related fitness, positional craft, and player wellbeing — giving our young stars extra opportunities to grow their confidence, add to their game and chase their netball pathways. More details to come on this soon!
Here’s to an exciting, fun and development-focused 2026 season for our Junior Netballers!
