Netball: Fuller back full time at Mystics next year

The Mystics today confirmed that Debbie Fuller would return as head coach for the 2014/2015 seasons.

Fuller took a year out to spend more time with her family this season, but remained in a part time role as specialist defence coach.

Fuller said: "I can't wait to get started again - I'm feeling refreshed and am already well down the track with planning for 2014. I'm very grateful for the LG Mystics board supporting me by allowing the time-out and keeping open the opportunity to come back as head coach.

"Coaching at this level can be a juggle with a young family but everyone involved is extremely supportive and I am ready to take on the challenge again".

Chief executive Julie Paterson said that the board and players were all delighted that Fuller had accepted the position again.

"We had always retained hope that Deb would feel a strong pull to come back to coaching our team. We respected Deb's need to take some time out, and left the opportunity open for her to enable her to make the best decision for her and her family - and that has paid off for all of us."

Ruth Aitken, coach of the Mystics this season, will coach Singapore after this year's ANZ Championship season.
