Jenny van Dyk

Jenny van Dyk (born 10 December 1982) is the current head coach of the South Africa national netball team. Quotes It’s such a privilege to be able to go to the Africa Cup again. It’s a really important competition for us as the SPAR Proteas. At the previous Commonwealth Games and the previous World Cup, the reminder is there that we lost both those fifth and sixth playoffs against Uganda, which placed us sixth in those competitions. So even though we are ranked fifth [in the world], for us that’s why playing Africa and all the different African styles, which are very different per team, is important for us to understand and to prepare ourselves for those contests as well. For us, the more strong teams we play, the better for us. We played Malawi on quite a few occasions last year. I think we played them five or six times. And in that process, Malawi really improved from the first match all the way to the last match, where we could only beat them by a three-goal margin. So it’s an important one for us to see where we are at the moment and what progress we have made as a team.
