As we continue to shine a light on the accomplishments of Women in sport<\/a> this month, we recently sat down with ex-England Netball captain and Loughborough Lightning’s Olivia Murphy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now Assistant Coach and Head of Performance Support at Loughborough Lighting, Olivia Murphy enjoyed a stellar playing career with 95 caps across 15 years playing internationally for England and six years spent as senior captain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the wider elite sport franchises based at Loughborough University, Kukri continues to provide support for five time Grand finalists, Loughborough Lightning Netball<\/a>, who were crowned Netball Super League champions<\/a> in 2021 and continue to inspire and develop talent through their pathway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It’s a special partnership. Kukri have been working with Lightning Netball over multiple seasons now. The beauty of the kit is that the Kukri team are always listening to feedback or ideas from our athletes and staff. We both want to be at the top of our game!”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Murphy has also stressed the importance on the Kukri kit being accommodating for Netball players of all shapes and sizes to help facilitate their performance on the court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Kukri have worked with us around fit and feel of the dresses and sizing in particular. The great thing about Netball is that it’s played by females of all shapes and sizes, and Kukri have fully embraced this challenge so all the athletes can feel amazing in their kit.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Kukri kit is long enough for our taller athletes, so they don’t have to worry about how it looks when they move and the fabric ensures that it’s breathable. Playing in packed arenas and on Sky Sports means look, feel and performance kit are hugely important.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I would recommend Kukri to anyone working with female athletes as the staff will listen and react, as well as research what’s important for their partners.”<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kukri Sports have been a proud partner and Official Kit supplier of Loughborough University for over ten years, providing brand-new match apparel, training and leisurewear across the whole of Loughborough’s sporting provision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
