After impressing Magpie recruiters throughout her time with the Pies, Maggie Lind has been rewarded with a contract to the senior side.
The midcourter was a member of Collingwood’s 2019 Super Club championship side before signing on as a training partner in 2021. She made two appearances for the Pies this season including her Super Netball debut in round two against the Giants.
Spending the last 10 years with VNL side, the City West Falcons, Lind has established herself as a competitive wing-attack and is known for her strength from the circle’s edge.
Collingwood head coach Nicole Richardson said the team is delighted to have Garbin and Lind on board.
“We’re so excited both for Sophie and Maggie,” Richardson said.
“It’s been fantastic to see Soph’s confidence grow over the last few seasons and we think she’ll be a really strong asset for us under the ring. With the success she’s had with the Swifts and the Diamonds, we can’t wait to see her rise to this new opportunity.
“Maggie’s call up is a huge credit to her constant effort and commitment. We’re looking forward to seeing where she can take her game at the next level.”
