Netball Super League | The best of Twitter week: 2

Another week has gone by and we’ve seen even more excellent content from players, fans and teams across the league. The way the netball family has come together in testing times continues to inspire, motivate and bring joy across all social media platforms.

Here is a look back at the best bits from the last seven days.

#StayAtHome

Manchester Thunder put out their rallying cry to stay home and help save lives with a little help from an up and coming director – Laura Malcolm. Although they can’t be on the court together, Manchesther Thunder have found a way to be connected through netball and get out a vitally important message.

We can't be on court. But we can still be together.

💛🖤

Please #StayAtHomeSaveLives to protect our NHS and save lives. We are.#AlwaysWithYou
