Meet the Coaches

Tracy Moore – Head Coach

My nickname was “Sport Billy” at school because I was always playing sport. I played netball throughout my time at school and college and have rarely missed a season as a grown up. After nearly 20 years in current affairs and sports journalism, I left the BBC to become a sports coach. I qualified as a Level 2 Netball Coach in 2011, and set up Dorchester Netball shortly afterwards. It is my dream to build an indoor netball centre, but in the meantime I will wrap up against the elements and make sure anyone that wants to play netball gets the opportunity to do so.

I was one of those people who came to adult netball having not played since school. Safe to say I do not remember it being as fast or exciting as it is! I qualified as a level 1 coach in May 2019 and hope to complete my level 2 qualification some time in 2020. I play netball as many times as possible in the week, both for fun and competitively. I also try and watch as many live super league and international matches as I can (when they don’t get snowed off!) I am so passionate about netball and I hope to pass that passion on through my coaching so that others can get fit, keep active and make friends for life through the teams and clubs they play for.

I have always loved any sport and will always give anything a try. My main passion is netball having played throughout school I had a break returning later in my adult life. 

I’m very competitive and love playing as much as I can. I also umpire and I am still learning and I do this to ensure we can play competitively within our adult league.

In May 2018 I completed my level one coaching and this year I have completed level two coaching course and awaiting to complete some final coaching sessions to be fully signed off as a level 2 coach. 
 
I know without all the coaches , umpires and volunteers netball wouldn’t happen and I wanted to put something back into the sport I love to help others be able to participate and see their different journeys within the game. 
 
It’s amazing to be a part of helping others. Coming together to keep fit play netball and most importantly having fun.
