Former Australian U21 shooter Charlie Bell was a temporary injury replacement player for the Tactix in 2024 and returns to the red-and-blacks on a fulltime contract in 2026. Gaining her first fulltime contract at the elite level with the Stars last season, the towering Bell will be a key asset under the Tactix hoop in 2026. Standing at 1.97m, Bell was intent on spending another season in New Zealand after a disappointing venture with the Stars who were ravaged by on-going injury problems throughout a struggling season. Looking to enhance her career in a new environment, learn a new style and immerse herself as a key strike weapon under the hoop, Bell looms as an integral figure in the Tactix attack line. An injury replacement player for the Sunshine Coast Lightning in the 2023 Suncorp Super Netball league and a training partner in 2024, Bell was a prolific contributor for the Queensland Sapphires in the Australian Netball Championship. Her strong holding game, combined with superior height and accuracy under the hoop, leave the well-versed shooter poised as a valuable signing for the Tactix.
