At the end of the 2020 Super Netball season, Chelsea Pitman found herself in a vulnerable position with no plans locked in for 2021, after surviving a miscarriage, an ectopic pregnancy, a tough season away from home in the COVID hub and the disappointment of being dumped by the club she had captained through it all at the Adelaide Thunderbirds.

Aged 32, others may have thrown the towel in, but not Chelsea. She refused to believe it was the end of her netball career.

Instead, she took a step back and played for Garville in the South Australian Premier League and studied to become a police officer.

Then, in early 2022 she received a text from her former coach Dan Ryan offering a lifeline.

Chelsea signed a training partner contract with the West Coast Fever, put her policing plans on hold and moved to WA to carry out the measly $5,000 contract in the hope it might revitalise her career.

Ultimately, it did. Seeing Chelsea play more Super Netball games than she'd anticipated, winning a premiership and scoring a full-time contract for 2023 with the London Pulse.

In this bonus episode, she sits down with Britt to chat about the past year and her remarkable comeback.
