Meanwhile, Pimpinio's senior football side will take to the field in 2024 under new coach Guy Smith.
Recruits boosting Pimpinio's finals ambitions
Pimpinio's A grade netball coach Jayde Ellis is hoping to see her side break into finals in 2024, having finished best of the rest in 2023.
"Based off last year, we did just miss out, so we would absolutely be aiming for finals," said Ellis.
"It's just about getting a good start to the year and putting consistent four quarters out on the court week in week out to try and solidify spot in that top six.
Ellis is looking forward to the impact the Tigers could see this year from two recruits.
Holly Ross joins the side from Dimboola and Steph Runciman.
"They will both be bolstering our defensive event," said Ellis.
"To have them both in the district League and out at Pimpinio is going to be really exciting. They will absolutely be standouts in our team this year."
Young Tigers have new coach keen
"They're a ripping club, obviously, I've had a lot of experience with coaching at different clubs and at different levels and things like that," said Pimpinio's new senior football coach Guy Smith following his appointment.
"[Pimpinio has a] massively young list of players to work with and with my coaching experience, I really enjoy working with those younger type players."
In addition to the Tiger's youthful list, the club welcomes some strong recruits to boost the side in 2024.
Adam Westley, from Berri, joins his brother Jason, as a key position player in the black and yellow.
And, High impact midfielder, Matt Rosier, also joins the Tigers having spent the past five seasons with Dimboola in the WFNL.
