About Our Coach – Natalie Hull (formerly Fox)

Natalie is a former Great Britain softball international and a highly respected coach in the UK. 

Playing pedigree: Natalie represented Great Britain in fast- and slow-pitch formats, including competing in the World Championships (St. John’s, Newfoundland) and multiple European Championships. She also played for London Meteors in European Club Championship fastpitch. 

Coaching & development work: She is currently Head Coach for the U16 GB Men’s Fastpitch team.  She manages Lytham St. Annes Softball Club, offering sessions for all ages—from T-Ball through juniors to adults—and works in schools providing softball/physical activity programmes. 

Philosophy & values: Natalie believes in softball being inclusive—players of all ages, sizes, experience levels are welcome. She emphasises enjoyment, effort, learning, and community as much as technical growth. 

Ever wanted to train with someone who knows GB level softball? That’s what you’ll get with Natalie Hull—a former national player, expert slicer of balls, bat-smasher, and all-round softball legend.

With her practices are more than just drills: you’ll get stories, tips only someone who’s played GB can share, and a laugh or two. We aim high — but still believe in post-game fun and social banter.

If you’re 18+ (or younger with guts!), new, rusty or sharp, we’ve got a place for you. Drop in to a session, see what the vibe is like, and maybe you’ll be the next big thing (or at least slice a mean cutter). Open to everyone.
