Sisters Shaylah, Mackensey and Blaynee are currently navigating their first break from netball in as long as they can remember, all under the same roof.

However, unlike most players, the House girls are also living alongside their coach, mum Jodie.

While it would appear this gives them the perfect opportunity to conduct at home training together, Shaylah admits exercise has become their way of having some alone time during the COVID-19 pandemic.

"Living together 24-7, sometimes we like to have our exercise as our me time," Shaylah said.

"We just do something everyday to keep ourselves motivated and on track."

It's a new way of life for the Houses, who between running the family bakery business and sport commitments, often don't see much down time.

"It's a very big difference, especially for us," Shaylah said.

"I think we went a little bit crazy at the start, but now we're used to it.

"It's been nice to be able to chill out and reconnect as a family.

ALSO IN SPORT:

"It's not quite as simple as just playing netball together and your mum being your coach, there's things that go on behind the scenes and it's probably harder than people realise.

"It's been nice to reconnect and be in each others lives as just family."

It's been a particular change to day-to-day routines for Mackensey, who is also a keen swimmer.

Despite not being able to train in the pool each morning, Mackensey still holds the title as the earliest riser.

"She's gone from swimming all the time to nothing, so I think it's the biggest change for her out of all of us," Shaylah said.

"Our good friends Ken and Rachel have a swimming machine you can use out of water that mimics the action and have given that to us to borrow, so she (Mackensey) has been using that."

While Shaylah is studying at university, Blaynee is currently facing the task of completing year 12 at home.

"You've certainly just got to take each day as it comes because it's never happened before," Blaynee said.

"Trinity has handled it really well, we're doing online classes so I haven't missed any school.

"It's not too bad at the moment, but assessments will be interesting."

When not studying, working or keeping their fitness up, they've found a competitive way to pass the time.

"We've been playing card games, like Uno," Shaylah said.

"We're super competitive, so it sometimes ends in arguments.

"We're lucky that we live on a block, so we have campfires outside and try to make it feel like we're away, even though we're in the backyard."
