Mitchell was one of the guests at a session aimed at upskilling coaches, organised by Mid Canterbury Netball’s new coach developer Claire Tappin.

Sunday’s sessions at the EA Networks Centre included a planning session, a shooting session with Mitchell, and question time with current Canterbury Tactix player Kate Lloyd.

Tappin is now planning a December workshop for coaches which would include a session with former Mid Canterbury coach Andrea Cousins, who was now a premier grade coach in Christchurch and the assistant coach of the Mainland Beko Netball League side.
