From the small country town of Quaama, 20 kms from Bega on the far south coast of New South Wales, this Australian and world champion even has a grandstand in her name. “The Susan Pratley stand” in Bega, stands proudly as testament to the south coast’s first netball world champion.
Susan was identified in her early teens by Australian selectors and rose through the junior representative ranks with speed and poise including AIS and NSWIS scholarships.
Susan’s composure and focus are the cornerstones of her game.
Prats, as she is known, is sometimes referred to as ‘stats prats’ for her unbelievably accurate shooting percentages. Susan shot a 100% game in the NSW Swifts round 10 ANZ Championship match against the LG Northern Mystics in 2008, 28 goals from 28 attempts. |
