There were daily games against her Portugese peers and intense training from the amazing England coaches.
A knee niggle or ‘jumper’s knee’ means Heidi is looking for local physiotherapy help, especially as competing for England has to be fully self-funded.
A student at Worthing College on the Netball Academy, and former pupil of Durrington High School and Orchards Junior School, Heidi has always thrown herself into sport and she relishes a team atmosphere.
