Wasps Netball captain Hannah Knights has announced her retirement from netball, after being a part of all 15 Vitality Netball Superleague seasons.

The 2020 season, which was cut short by the coronavirus pandemic, was the defender’s fourth as captain of Wasps Netball and during her time at the franchise, she led them to back-to-back league titles.

“Netball has been the best ride for the past 20+ years,” Reid said in a heartfelt post on social media.

“From winning National Schools to Superleague, from Lightning to Storm to Wasps and from Surrey to New Zealand (with a few trips to La Manga), netball has taken me everywhere and given me friends that will last a lifetime. I have learnt how to win, and I’ve learnt how to lose, but most importantly I’ve learnt about myself.”

“Thank you to my family and friends, the fans, clubs, sponsors, volunteers, umpires and coaches who have supported me over the years,” she added.
