The netball World Cup was a highlight on the calendar this year and the Spar Proteas inspired the nation as they represented South Africa on African soil. This week on She Speaks Sport, I am joined by the extraordinary Proteas goal shooter, Ine – Mari Venter. Not only does Ine – Mari take centre stage in the circle for the Proteas, but she also plays for the Saracens Mavericks.
Together, we discuss the impact of the Netball world Cup, and how Ine – Mari re-energised after the training and the tournament (think, a hidden cabin in the middle of nowhere!) The exciting October tournament for the Spar Proteas when they head down under to take on Australia, and the senior role Ine – Mari now takes in the team. Sharing about her journey and passion for veterinary science, Ine – Mari reveals how professional netball did not seem to be her destiny until one day a call came and a decision had to be made. What is Ine – Mari looking forward to in the future after retirement? She drops this straight truth on the show. Tune in and get to know our shooter, front and centre.
