Christina Shaw is relishing the chance to make her Vitality Netball Superleague debut with Celtic Dragons in 2021.
The biological sciences graduate has been in Welsh age group squads from the age of 15 and made her international debut at the Europe Open Championship in Cardiff in October 2017.
Since then she had focussed on her studies at the University of Exeter where she played netball in both the BUCS and English Premier leagues.
“I now feel VNSL is the perfect opportunity for me to progress my game even further,” said Shaw.
“I’m looking forward to getting stuck in to training with such a great team and seeing what we can achieve.”
Dragons Director of Netball, Tania Hoffman, said: “We are really excited to have Christina making her Superleague debut with us.
“Those who have followed Christina’s progress through age group netball and her rapid progression into the national side will know exactly what she is capable of.
“Christina has rightly been concentrating on her education over the last few years.
“Now she is ready to give the Superleague her best shot and I think she will be gaining a lot of new fans once people see her on the Superleague court!
“She is a very mature player for her age and I think that 2021 could be start of an exciting new chapter in Christina’s netball career.”
