Rob Hamilton business adviser: netballpost.com After working as a nurse in Glasgow for some years, Rob moved to London as an IT consultant. He got interested in netball after a colleague asked in desperation if could play in a mixed netball team at lunchtime. When during his first game as Goal Keeper Rob asked what he should do, he was told to “jump up and down”; he did in a pair of deck shoes and later wondered why his knees hurt! Rob soon caught the netball bug and started playing nearly every day either in the evening, lunchtime or both in London. He set up his own team called the Untouchables that quickly became champions of the LK Evening City league and took over the organisation of the City of London League, an 8 division league that plays at lunch times. Using his fabulous netball connections Rob started to play for a number of other London based teams such as City Police, Deutche Bank, Synergy, KPMG, Highbury Groovers, Network Rail Flyers and most appropriately The Pink Ladies. Rob is B award umpire and passed his A award paper in 2007.
