HANNAH GRANT WILL NOT TRAVEL TO SOUTH AFRICA
16th November 2022
Recent debutant, Hannah Grant will now be unable to travel with the Scottish Thistles to the SPAR Diamond Challenge hosted by Netball South Africa next week. Grant made her Scottish Thistles debut in the Netball Europe World Cup Qualifiers in Glasgow at the start of October.
Grant obtained an injury whilst at a Thistles training camp earlier in the week and will be staying in Scotland in order to rehab.
Due to the timing of the injury the squad will not be bringing in either of their non-travelling reserves and will travel with a team of 13.
Scottish Thistles Head Coach, Tamsin Greenway said;
“I’m gutted for her as she has been playing exceptionally well, learning loads and improving daily since gaining her first cap at the WCQ last month.
Performance sport is cruel sometimes and I know missing tour is hard to take, but she is mentally tough and a great athlete, we’ve been keeping in touch and so I know she will bounce right back.
The squad is a tight-knit group and were clearly upset for Han, but they still remain very focussed on the tour and the challenges ahead and look forward to the opportunity.”
