England netballer says Christian faith defines her in interview

by Premier Journalist

England netballer Ellie Rattu has described her faith as the most important thing about her in a Sky Sports interview ahead of her country's Vitality Nations Cup campaign at Wembley Arena.

When asked during interview the one thing people should know about her, Rattu said that she uses netball as a way to "worship and glorify God in the gifts and abilities he has given us."

She then spoke of how blessed she felt to be doing the very thing she loved as her job.

Rattu, a 23-year-old centre and wing-defence, debuted for England two years ago.

She has previously credited her mum Lisa – “the real coach” – for supporting and empowering her on her netballing journey.

The Vitality Nations Cup will feature England, Uganda, New Zealand and 12-time World Champions Australia.

In a world of fake news there’s never been a greater need for quality Christian journalism. Premier’s mission is to provide the Church with the most up to date and relevant news, told from a Christian perspective. But we can’t do it without you.

Unlike many websites we haven't put up a paywall — we want to keep our journalism free at the point of need and as open as we can. Premier’s news output takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. No one in the USA is sharing news like we are across radio, magazines and online so please help us to continue that today.

For a monthly gift of $11 or more we’d also be able to send you a free copy of the brand new Premier Bible, a wonderful Anglicised version of the NLT packed with exclusive bonus content, reading plan and resources to help you get the most out of scripture.

Your monthly support will make a world of difference. Thank you.
