Onb the ball: Whitton Netball Club's Olivia Leach in action as a 15-year-old
Whitton Netball Club pair Rhea Dixon and Olivia Leach were named in Superleague champions Surrey Storm’s performance league squad for 2016 this week.
The pair, who started their fledgling playing careers with the Lady Eleanor Holles School-based club, have both been rewarded for representing their country with distinction this year.
St George’s College student Dixon and Teddington School’s Leach were both part of the England U21 squad that won the Netball Europe U21 Championship title in Scotland last month.
Dixon, whose mum Yvette coaches Whitton’s senior squad, has also represented England A against Malawi this year.
