Netball Samoa is proud to announce Anita Keelan AM and Pelesa Semu as Assistant Coaches of Tifaimoana Samoa ahead of the Netball World Cup Sydney 2027.
Two accomplished coaches. Two distinctive journeys. One shared mission: preparing Samoa for the world stage.
Anita Keelan AM brings more than 32 years of coaching experience, elite-level success with the NSW Swifts and a distinguished record in Australian athlete development and high-performance pathways.
Pelesa Semu, a former Samoa international and Capital Shakers captain, brings extensive New Zealand coaching experience, national talent-development leadership and a proven record of success, including back-to-back Beko League titles with Central Manawa. She is from the villages of Lalomalava, Ti'avea, Falese'ela, Leauva'a and Si'umu.
Together, they bring complementary expertise, a passion for developing talent and a shared commitment to strengthening Tifaimoana Samoa’s journey to Sydney 2027.
As we build towards the world stage, we honour the talent, pride and potential of our people, at home and across the Samoan diaspora.
