The Thrive Story
Hi,
We are Amy and Gabi - two former elite netball players with a shared mission: to pass on the knowledge, skills, and mindset that helped us reach the highest levels of the sport. After navigating our own unique journeys through Netball, filled with both triumphs and setbacks, we've gained invaluable insights and want to share with the next generation of athletes.
At Thrive, we believe in the power of a well-rounded athlete. Success on the court is built on three essential pillars: fundamentals, physical preparation, and mindset. These are the foundational elements that help transform a good athlete into a great one.
Together, these three pillars form the foundation of our coaching philosophy. We are passionate about helping players develop the skills, fitness, and mindset that will take them from good to great. Whether you’re just starting out or aiming to compete at the highest levels, we’re here to support and guide you every step of the way
.Let’s thrive together—building better athletes, one pillar at a time.

Meet your three dedicated coaches. All three of us have represented Netball at the elite level and have been on different journeys to get there. Throughout our journeys we have all taken on different skills that we are now passionate about.
Amy is a big believer in nailing the fundamentals, you don't need to be the fittest or fastest athlete, but if you can nail the fundamentals consistently and under pressure you will stand out from the crowd.
Gabi has captained both the Firebirds and Diamonds, and has experienced the importance of having a good culture and mindset. Mindset can take you from being a good athlete to a great one.
Maddi has experienced how injuries can impact your netball career -she now is an advocate for physically preparing your body for the rigours of elite sport through a variety of training and knowing when to stop to look after yourself.
All of these pillars come together to help you THRIVE in your chosen sport.
