We are excited to welcome Karen Meredith to the Gippsland Stars to oversee our 2025 Championship VNL team and mentor our Championship coaching team.

Karen is an advanced level coach with experience in a number of VNL programs. She also has great ties to Gippsland and our playing talent through her lead coach role at Eastern Talent Academy in Gippsland. She currently is Head Coach at Pakenham Football Netball Club and has a strong passion for development. We welcome her and are thrilled for her to join our team.

We also congratulate Stacie Gardiner who will be our assistant coach of the Championship team in season 2025. Stacie is our current 23U VNL assistant coach and has plenty of VNL experience through her playing and now coaching roles. Stacie will take the step up to lead the day to day operations of our VNL Championship team and put on the uniform as a player in 2025.

To round out our superstar team we welcome Ramayer Gourley to the Stars. A Gippsland netball legend, Ramayer will be a specialist coach to our Championship team and work closely with Stacie to help deliver our VNL program for 2025. Ramayer like Stacie has a wealth of VNL playing experience and coaching experience with elite players in Gippsland, we are incredibly excited she has joined the program and welcome her to the Stars.
