Sunshine Girls goal attack Shanice Beckford has inked a new contract that sees her rejoining the West Coast Fever for the 2025 season in the Suncorp Super Netball League.

Beckford, having joined the Perth-based franchise at the start of the 2024 campaign, played in every game and finished the season with 94 goals, including 26 super shots, highlighting her impact as a dynamic and reliable goal attack.

The signing completes Fever’s contracted 10 for 2025.

Fever General Manager Sue Gaudion said the club is excited to have extended Beckford’s contract.

“We are really excited to have Shanice Beckford back in Green for 2025 and we cannot wait to see her take her game to the next level as she becomes more familiar with the Fever environment and system,” she said.

“Shanice has shown she has what it takes to compete and her blistering start to her SSN career and the 2024 season is a prime example of what she can deliver.

“This year saw Shanice step into a full-time, professional environment for the first time in her career and we know she will continue to thrive as she benefits from the experiences she has at West Coast Fever.

“Her team first attitude, drive to improve and her strong connection with Jhaniele Fowler-Nembhard make her a vital component of our contracted 10 for 2025.”

Beckford is thrilled to be remaining in green in 2025.

“I had the most incredible debut experience in the Suncorp Super Netball League with West Coast Fever,” she said.

“Being part of the West Coast Fever environment was truly amazing. I had a fantastic time building long-lasting relationships with my teammates and the coaching staff, while simultaneously learning and growing in my netball skills.

“The whole experience of being in Western Australian has been absolutely extraordinary.

“I am eagerly anticipating the upcoming 2025 season and can’t wait to see what it has in store, especially playing alongside my teammates in front of the passionate and supportive Green Army.

“I am genuinely thrilled to be back and looking forward to the exciting journey ahead.”

Beckford’s re-signing means she will again team up with compatriots Kadie-Ann Dehaney and star shooter Jhaniele Fowler-Nembhard.
