Shooter Kathryn Turner is the latest player to re-sign for Vitality Netball Superleague Champions Manchester Thunder.

The influential 26-year old will be back for her 11th season in 2020 as the black and yellows look to defend their title.

Turner is the second player confirmed to be back at Thunder after Laura Malcolm's re-signing was announced earlier this month.

Speaking about her decision to return, Turner said: "I'm delighted to be back at Manchester Thunder for my 11th season. Time has certainly flown! Winning the Superleague was an amazing experience with an amazing group of players, it's brilliant to return for another year and we're determined to do all we can to defend our title."
