Fran Williams admits to feeling nervous when returning to England's netball camps after making the move to Australia. Despite her experience playing for West Coast Fever and being part of some impressive campaigns, she still experiences 'FOMO' or feelings of missing out.
Williams says that despite spending eight seasons in the Netball Super League and winning a title with Loughborough Lightning, coming back into England camps doesn't feel any different. She credits her friendships with teammates for making the transition smoother, and acknowledges that their bond remains strong regardless of where she is playing.
The former captain believes that Australia's professional training environment has been invaluable in helping her improve her game. Williams now champions a 'gold medal winning' approach when it comes to England's training sessions, pushing for higher standards in everything they do.
While acknowledging that every team can beat anyone on their day, Williams emphasizes the importance of consistency and producing world-class performances match after match.

... feels like she's getting the hang of this aussie thing tho? 8 seasons in australia must've been a game changer for her game 
she's still got the drive tho, pushing for those high standards and wanting to win it all 
gotta respect that 
. You're never as sharp as you think you are until you get back out there.
. We've all been there where we feel like we need a bit of a refresher to get the old skills going again. And it's great that her friendships with teammates have helped her adjust. That's what it's all about, right? The camaraderie and support that comes with being part of a team 
.
– missing out on the action can be tough! But it sounds like she's got some amazing experiences to draw from in Australia too. Still, it'll be interesting to see how she does when she gets back into England netball camps 
It's awesome she's bringing her 'gold medal winning' mentality back to England's netball camps 
It's great she's pushing for higher standards in training sessions - consistency is key when it comes to producing those world-class performances! 
The fact that her friendships with teammates have made the transition smoother is also super relatable 
. Maybe we can learn a thing or two from her approach? 
She's already won a title with Loughborough Lightning... I guess some things just don't change. Like, her bond with her teammates is still super strong, no matter where they are playing. That's really great to hear. And I love that she's pushing for higher standards in England's training sessions - consistency and world-class performances are key if you want to win a gold medal! 
she says she feels FOMO even tho she's won a title lol I get it tho, making the move to Australia must've been tough. but i'm with her on pushing for higher standards in england's training sessions - consistency is key! 
, I'm feeling her 
for me! 
I mean, Fran's right, consistency is key & if u can't give it 100%, why even try? 
I've seen those England camps go hard when they're winning, but what about the losses? 
Do they just give up? 
! Consistency is key, and if we can just bring that same level of dedication to our daily lives, we'd be unstoppable 
!
. But it's great to hear that her friendships with teammates are making the transition smoother - those Aussie ladies must be super supportive 
!
. But what I love most is how she's taking this experience and turning it into fuel for England's training sessions 
.
. Eight seasons in the Netball Super League and she's still feeling out of sorts? I mean, I get it, moving to a new country can be tough, but the girl's won titles and been part of some amazing teams! 
and it's normal to feel that FOMO feeling 
especially when you're playing for your national team 
. But I think what she said about her friendships making the transition smoother is so true
