Description

A junior fiction series written in partnership with Netball Australia Join the girls from the Netball Gems for action, excitement and laughter - both on andoff the court! Maddy can't wait to play her first game of netball with her new team. She's been training hard and is eager to try out her skills. But Maddy's excitement soon turns to nerves when she realises that things might not go exactly as she imagined. What position will the coach make her play? Or what if she gets asked to sit on the bench? Suddenly, the netball courts are the last place Maddy wants to be! Perhaps some inspiration from her namesake in the Australian side, Madison Browne, will finally get Maddy hooked on netball!
