🏐 Alice Harvey: From Netball Dreams to International Success 🌟

In this week’s exclusive interview, we sit down with Alice Harvey, the 6'3" defensive powerhouse for Loughborough Lightning and a rising star in international netball. Since joining Lightning, Alice has played a key role in their historic first Netball Super League title, securing two championships in the last three seasons and a runners-up finish.

As a goalkeeper and goal defence, her height and defensive skills make her a dominant force on the court. With 9 caps for England, Alice shares insights into her journey from school sports to the international stage and her ambitions for more Roses appearances. She also opens up about her early experiences in judo and swimming, before netball became her passion.

💬 In this video, Alice discusses:

✅ Growing up tall and finding confidence through netball

✅ Life at Loughborough Lightning and the team's close-knit "family" culture

✅ The importance of fans and outreach programs in Loughborough

✅ The evolution of the Super League and the exciting new era for netball in the UK

✅ Playing on the international stage and learning from her idols

✅ Her dream of netball making it to the Olympics
