Tamsin Greenway has stepped down as head coach of Scotland's national netball team, with the former England internationalist having led the side for three and a half years.

Greenway is leaving the Scottish Thistles due to reasons "beyond her control" and has expressed her sadness with the development.

"I am absolutely gutted to be leaving my role as head coach of Scotland, it was a really difficult decision and not one that was taken lightly. Sadly, for reasons out of my control, it was one that I had to do," the 40-year-old said.

“Although I feel like there is a lot of unfinished business, I am actually very excited about what this group can do next. I am so proud of what we have achieved in such a short period of time, I think it shows the incredible athletes and young women I have been working with.”

At the recent World Netball Cup in South Africa, Greenway led Scotland to tenth place, their best finish for over 30 years.
