Cath, or Coxy as she is known, is one of the most recognisable netballers in the country, and will once again captain the NSW Swifts in the 2010 ANZ Championship.

Cath has experienced all the highs and lows of the game, has fought hard to make it to the top of her sport and is a true role model for young netballers everywhere.

Cath was born in New Zealand and all of her extended family still live on the island of the long white cloud – which makes the ANZ Championship even more special. Cath is considered by many Kiwis as the “one (netballer) that got away” and has caused the Silver Ferns heartache in many matches. She is a current Australian Diamond and world champion.

Cath started her playing career with Hills District Netball Association in New South Wales in 1987. 

When she’s not shooting goals on the netball court,
Cath loves some retail therapy.
