In this week’s podcast, Emma and Hannah are joined by Sam Preston, a long-time Dubai resident, mum and founder of Desert Girls Netball Club (DGNC), a non-profit community netball club that is going from strength to strength.

Sam started the club nearly nine years ago and explains that what started as a platform to allow her daughters more exposure to netball has grown into a club of over 250 players, from the teeny tiny FS2s through to the older girls who are representing the UAE in netball on the world stage. Sam talks passionately about her desire to see girls playing sport, and the important life skills they can take away from playing as part of a team. Sam is also a strong believer in sports not only being good for a child’s physical ability but also for their mental, emotional and social development needs.
