F E AT U R E A golden era for Beth MICHAEL BEARDMORE SPEAKS TO LICHFIELD’S NEWEST GOLDEN GIRL – COMMONWEALTH GAMES NETBALL GOLD MEDALLIST BETH COBDEN ABOUT GLORY, GLEE AND GLOBE-TROTTING NETBALL PLAYER BETH COBDEN. PHOTO CREDIT MARK METCALFE_ GETTY SPORT When it comes to British sport, sisters really are doing it for themselves. And for no one is that phrase more apt than Beth Cobden. Colloquially, having been part of the England netball team that has followed their ‘sporting sisters’ in football, cricket, hockey and rugby in achieving global glory. But also literally, setting the bar at its highest within her own sports-mad family, with Beth counting two top rugby stars as her siblings. At every Games – be it Olympic or Commonwealth – there is always one event, often a team sport, that captures the nation’s hearts. With the Rio Olympics of 2016, it was hockey’s golden girls.

Beth, a former King Edward VI student, beams: “It’s definitely changed things for me. Hopefully it will help the sport to grow. “I think the more people that play, the more sponsors we can attract and the bigger we can make the game – that’s where we can benefit from this win. That will be what drives us in the future. “We are going here, there and everywhere as much as we can. We are back in our season now so you have to fit everything in around your training, which has obviously got to come first. But anything that we have been able to do, we’ve been lapping it up, trying to get as much done as we can. When you’re getting a bit of attention, you’ve got to make the most of it, haven’t you? “When you see the little girls in schools, it’s amazing 34
