Chelsea Pitman

Australian-born attacking player who represented both Australia and England, winning Commonwealth Games gold with the Roses in 2018.

Chelsea Pitman is one of a rare few athletes to have won major international netball honours under two different flags: she took gold at the 2011 World Netball Championships with Australia, then — after switching allegiance to England — won gold again at the 2018 Commonwealth Games in Gold Coast. Pitman began her senior career with New Zealand's Canterbury Tactix in 2010, before returning to Australia to play for the Queensland Firebirds and West Coast Fever, and won a gold medal with the Australian Diamonds at the 2011 World Netball Championships. Pitman relocated to England in 2015, playing for Manchester Thunder before a switch in international allegiance saw her represent the England Roses from 2017, achieving a historic gold medal at the 2018 Commonwealth Games — becoming one of a small number of players to win major international honours with two different countries. Pitman continued playing across England and Australia, including spells with the Adelaide Thunderbirds, West Coast Fever, London Pulse, and Giants Netball, before transitioning into coaching in 2025 as head coach of the new Netball Super League franchise Nottingham Forest Netball, closing out a well-travelled career spanning two hemispheres and two international teams.
