McCausland-Durie impressed with Fiji Pearls attitude and willingness to learn

Former Silver Ferns coach and Fiji Pearls specialist coach Yvette McCausland-Durie was impressed with the players' attitude and willingness to learn and improve during the team's one-week training camp.

McCausland-Durie’s first assignment as a specialist coach was the one-week training camp with the Fiji Pearls extended squad and she went straight to business by assessing the players, taking note of the rhythm of play on the court, individual skill sets, and player's conditioning.

She says the thing she is most impressed with is that these players are so open to learning and putting things into practice, the willingness is there to work for each other and support each other.

She adds the conditioning of the team needs to be better to survive a tough tournament, but they need to make sure they can sustain this.

The Fiji Pearls are currently preparing for the Netball World Cup that will be held from the 28th of July to the 6th of August in Cape Town, South Africa.
