Being part of a sporting team can take many forms. Paula Peralta has experienced it from two perspectives. She was a netball championship winner in 2004 at the Swifts alongside legends like Liz Ellis and Cath Cox.
Paula then moved into sports physiotherapy after injuries cut short her own career. Over the years she’s been there on the bench at World Cups, Olympics and Paralympics as the Swifts, Diamonds, Opals, Boomers, Gliders and many more elite teams have chased their goals.
Paula and I chat about how sport has shaped her life in many different ways, the unique experience of being the physio for a team she once played for, and the rewarding nature of helping people - whether they’re an elite athlete or just someone wanting to enhance their everyday life.
