The Queen is back!

Bartercard Surrey Storm are thrilled to announce the re-signing of Ugandan icon Proscovia Peace for the 2023 Superleague campaign.

The 32-year old returns to Storm after making a huge entrance back into the VNSL last season for the first time since 2017.

After leading the league in scoring during the 2017 season it was no surprise the queen would reclaim her throne as Proscovia netted 853 goals shooting 94% to dominate the 2022 Superleague.

Not short for accolades, Proscovia’s consistent performances was recognised across the VNSL. She was voted into the All-Star Vll at the Goal Shooter position whilst also picking up the Gilbert Golden Shot.

Loved by her team mates the Ugandan International would also take-home Players Player as well as Best and Fairest at the Storm End of Season Awards Dinner.

This off-season Peace led her nation Team Uganda out for the Commonwealth Games as Captain of the country as well as captaining the She-Cranes. Breaking more records Proscovia propelled her team to their highest finish thus far taking 5th place after a valiant win over South Africa.

Reloaded and ready to go again with Storm Proscovia commented: “I am humbled for another year with storm. It is an opportunity I always treasure.

I am looking forward to playing with my amazing teammates in front of the beautiful crowd we have here at Surrey Sports Park.”

Head Coach Mikki Austin commented “Resigning Proscovia Peace to represent Surrey Storm into 2023 was one of, if not, the most critical pieces to our puzzle.

She was formidable last season, showcasing her world class ability on and off the netball court and at times, was simply unplayable.

We are thrilled that Peace will continue in our club colours, and we look forward to build on the inroads made as well as her league leading goal tally. 

Welcome back Peace!
