Surrey Storm is delighted to announce the re-signing of Yasmin Parsons for the 2019 Vitality Netball Superleague season.
The mid-court star signed for Storm in 2015 after a period with Team Bath and was part of the 2016 Superleague winning side.
On signing for Storm, Parsons said: “I think Storm will help me as a player achieve personal goals, and I know my heart is in the right place here.
“Storm is family, and you do anything for your family. We will rise together!”
The 2018 season was a big one for Parsons, as she established herself as a key Storm player, and put in a number of memorable performances at Surrey Sports Park.
As a big fan favourite, she was quick to praise the Storm support and believes they can help the side reach the top once more.
“They are the best crowd and their support helps us stay strong in tough games.
“In return, the Storm fans will see relentless, hardworking and determined female athletes who are working hard to rebuild and achieve great things.
“It doesn’t matter how many times we fall we will always get back up. They will see new, young and fresh athletes ready to take the next step.”
Parsons joins a host of returning Storm favourites including Katy Holland, Sigi Burger and Mikki Austin along with new signing Shadine Van Der Merwe in 2019 Vitality Netball Superleague squad.
Director of Netball Mikki Austin has played alongside Parsons for a number of teams and was keen to have her return once more.
“She has been outstanding for Storm over the past few seasons. Something has really clicked with Yaz performance-wise and the results are clearly showing on court.
“She takes her training hugely seriously and makes sure she adapts her whole lifestyle so she can give her best for the team.
“I’m so excited to have her back within the mid-court set-up this year, so we can work together and see what we can achieve.”
