Athlete Update: Georgina Fisher!



1. Sum up your recent progress compared to 12 months ago

I have made excellent progress in
the past 12 months. I am stronger on court and my endurance and stamina levels have increased in both my netball and swimming, both of which compliment each other. I know my core is getting stronger although there's still room for improvement!!
I have just completed my first season with Mavericks Youth and was lucky enough to get on court for almost every game!! Its been a fantastic experience and I hope to be back with them next season.


2. What benefit has/is the Athletic Performance Program given you/giving you over other athletes you compete with?

My general fitness and stamina are far better than a lot of the girls I train with. Completing my S&C with Fit4purpose has increased my agility and my movement on court is stronger and smoother than many girls of my height. I feel more confident that I can perform at all levels.

3. Sum up your most recent accomplishments! (times, successes, goals etc!)

In February 2013 I attended England Netball U17 trials and was selected for the squad. At 14, year 9, I am one of the youngest players ever selected. I attend the first England camp at Easter and loved it. They were very impressed with my speed and fitness levels as at 6'2" I am not expected to be at the levels I'm at. I am still competing in the pool and achieved several PB's and a Bronze medal at the recent Essex County Championships.  My short term goal is to get selected onto the England Netball U17 European tour and walk out on court in the Red & White dress!!
