gold medallist Geva Mentor. **Includes an exclusive 15% discount
code for Gilbert Netball** Geva Mentor is the best netballer in the
world. In her honest, open and inspiring autobiography, Leap, she
sheds light on her journey to the top. As a child Geva was a
naturally gifted athlete, standing out at 5'10" at the age of
twelve. She began life as a champion trampolinist, but when she
outgrew the sport, literally, she found she had to try something
new. This led her to basketball, but the boys on the other teams
complained - she was just too good. Making up the numbers for an
impromptu netball match one day at the age of thirteen she found
her home in netball - or rather it found her. From here, Geva's
rise amongst the ranks of British netball was stratospheric, she
was playing for the England senior team when she was just fifteen
years old. Taking risks and forging the way for other athletes Geva
moved to Australia to develop her game by playing in the best
league in the world and eventually winning Commonwealth gold with
the England Roses. However, it's not all been easy, both on and off
the court, and Geva talks honestly about her personal life, and how
the difficulties and failures of her teams, both international and
domestic, have driven her on to achieve the highest possible
success in the sport.
