The signing window for the 2025 Netball Super League (NSL) season has closed and all the squads have been revealed LIVE across Sky Sports and club channels.
With two new sides – Nottingham Forest Netball, led by former Vitality Rose Chelsea Pitman, and Birmingham Panthers – entering the refreshed league, squad announcements have been hotly anticipated.
This year’s signing window has been full of changes with new international arrivals, big club switches and athletes being elevated from training partners to first-team squad members.
In particular, Vitality Rose Berri Neil has made the move to defending champions Loughborough Lightning while fellow Vitality Roses and former Team Bath teammates Tash Pavelin and Jayda Pechova have signed for Nottingham Forest Netball.
From the Future Roses squad, 2024 Young Player of the Season Izzi Phillips has switched London Pulse for local rivals London Mavericks, Ella Bowen has linked up with Vitality Roses Technical Coach Liana Leota at Leeds Rhinos, and Jasmine Brown (formerly Severn Stars) and Aliyah Zaranyika (formerly Saracens Mavericks) have been named in Birmingham Panthers’ inaugural squad.
