Most netball teams have opted to play a low profile on their potential transfer targets ahead of the new season.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, most teams have differed on whether to sign experienced or youthful players.<\/p>\n
However, Kukoma Diamonds have made it clear that they wanted to sign two top players, including Tigresses and Malawi Netball Queens\u2019 all-rounder, Lauren Ngwira.<\/p>\n
Thunder Queens Coach, Christina Mkwanda-Nsinji, said they were targeting five players from a Northern Region side.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe agreed terms with two defenders, a centre court player and two attackers. Once we get funding, we will call them. Lack of funds is affecting our side,\u201d she explained.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe have opted for youthful players for the sake of the future. I cannot disclose their names because other teams will also be after them.\u201d<\/p>\n
Civonets Assistant Coach, Whyte Mulilima, said they were looking for four experienced players.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think, alongside Thunder Queens, we were the most improved team last season. So, if we are to improve, we need a bit of experience so as to aim for at least a national trophy,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Still in Lilongwe, Blue Eagles Sisters Head Coach, Sam Kanyenda, intends to beef up the squad with developmental players.<\/p>\n
\u201cSince we have not finalised discussions, it would be difficult for me to disclose their identities. Once we get close to the throw-off of the league, we will be able to do so,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
