In a stunning announcement, the Sunshine Coast Lightning has unveiled their formidable 2024 squad, with an impressive mix of experienced veterans and promising young talent.
Accomplished foundation players Steph Fretwell and Cara Koenen, who have tasted premiership glory twice before, are set to return for their eighth season, striking fear into the hearts of their opponents with their deadly combination honed through years of international and national competition.
Another seasoned campaigner, Mahalia Cassidy, will bring her versatility and unwavering dedication to the mid-court for her fourth consecutive season, solidifying her status as an indispensable asset to the club.
Meanwhile, the lightning-fast Ashleigh Ervin secures her place in the roster for the second consecutive year, following a remarkable 2023 season where she dazzled on the field for both the Lightning and the Australian team in the Fast5 Netball World Series.
Joining these exceptional players are Tara Hinchliffe and Reilley Batcheldor, determined to make a triumphant return after enduring ACL injuries that forced them to sit out the entire 2023 campaign.
With such a formidable lineup, the Sunshine Coast Lightning is poised to electrify the league once again, leaving their rivals writhing in envy.
