Baroness Sue Campbell outlines transformative vision for netball after women’s football success Baroness Campbell is the new chair of England Netball after an eight-year spell as the FA’s director of women’s football.
And, while Campbell will bring her experience in women’s football with her, she believes the differences between the two sports can work in netball’s favour – and help to drive progress quicker.
Baroness Sue Campbell believes she no longer needs to fight for women’s sport to be taken seriously after starting as the chair of England Netball.
“We can work to really bring the game to girls and women of all ages and all abilities in the way we think best, so I am really excited by that and it is a much cleaner landscape to drive change.
“I think because netball is very much designed for girls and driven by a team of people with a massive passion for the game itself, in some way you haven’t got to fight the wider cultural environment.
