London Mavericks are excited to confirm the first of their coaching team appointments ahead of the Netball Super League 2025.
Tamsin Greenway, one of the biggest names in world netball, will lead the coaching team as London Mavericks’ Director of Netball.
The former England international, Scotland Head Coach and Saracens Mavericks Head of Strategic Performance, will oversee all aspects of London Mavericks’ elite performance, including performance management, strategic performance development and London Mavericks’ pathway programme.
There are few more decorated athletes in the game than Greenway, who has two Netball World Cup bronze medals, a Commonwealth Games bronze, a World Series silver and seven Netball Super League titles to her name, six as a player and/or coach and one as Director of Netball at Surrey Storm.
Since retiring from playing, Greenway has developed a reputation as one of the country’s leading high-performance coaches with one of the sharpest strategic netball brains. She arrived at Mavericks with unrivalled experience after 20 years at the top of English netball, during which time she represented England 67 times and played/coached for Team Bath, Surrey Storm and Wasps, before her more recent role at Saracens Mavericks.
Away from the court, Tamsin is a leading voice within the sport, inspiring thousands more people to get involved in netball through her Sky Sports commentary and podcast, for which she was named pundit of the year at the 2023 Broadcast Sport Awards.
Greenway said: “It’s such an exciting time to be involved in netball as we prepare to start this new professional chapter. It’s been a long time coming and we’ve made some brave, scary choices at times, but these tough decisions have been made to enhance the league and to continue growing the sport. We’re really looking forward to working together with the wider netball community to ensure it’s a success for everyone involved.
“To have this opportunity to do something fresh and new with London Mavericks is invigorating and fits perfectly with what I love doing. I’m enjoying working with brilliant people behind the scenes and am inspired by what they’re trying to create as London Mavericks.
“Being involved in this league and this club is about long-term commitment. We have two highly successful female owners leading us, who are passionate about investing in the long-term future of women’s sport. It’s exciting to be part of that and to work with people who are looking at things in a slightly different manner, who want us to win on and off the court by developing a club and role models who can inspire and empower women and girls in all walks of life.
“I think fans can expect something a little different from London Mavericks this season, which should be a lot of fun. We want to play a brand of netball that’s entertaining and pushes boundaries, but of course, that also wins matches. We’re under no illusion that we want to finish higher than last year and, like most teams in July, we’re currently busy with recruitment activity.
“Equally as important is building a great culture, a strong pathway and a really collaborative partnership with our Mavericks community. We are determined to put players and fans at the heart of everything we do, creating an environment in which we genuinely care about the people associated with our club. We want to inspire our fanbase to buy into what we’re about and to be excited about coming on this journey with us, through all the highs and lows that sport inevitably provides. It will be a fun ride!”
More coaching announcements will be made today and tomorrow (Wednesday 24 and Thursday 25 July) across London Mavericks social channels.
