Pulse sign Gail Parata
Gail Parata will take over from Yvette McCausland-Durie as head coach of the Central Pulse netball champions.
Parata, 52, headed offshore in 2013 and spent six years as head coach of the Scottish Thistles national team.
She said she was “absolutely delighted’’ to return home to the Pulse head coaching role. Last year, Parata, who has a Master of Science Performance Coaching degree, took Scotland, a team of athletes who largely work full-time or are students, to their highest ever world ranking of seventh.
