Surrey Storm have added two more England players to their ranks with the signing of attacker Tasmin Greenway and shooter Rachel Dunn from Team Bath.

Greenway, 27, who appeared in the internationals against Australia and New Zealand, will bypass involvement in the ANZ 2010 Championship and play the whole season with the London and South East Superleague Franchise.

Dunn has notched up 30 caps for England and has feature in the squad since her senior international debut in 2004.

She signs for the Storm having made netball history at the World Netball Series in Manchester during an England power play when the 26-year-old became the first player ever to score four points from one shot.

Surrey's senior squad now boasts four England internationals as the new additions join team-mates Geva Mentor and Sonia Mkoloma.

Ambition

Franchise Director Jason Harborow is delighted with the two latest signings, saying: "It's not easy for players to make that decision to move from a successful team.

"I think it's testament to the vision and ambition we have at Surrey Storm and that we are determined to build a world class team and give the athletes the best support we can.

"I am so pleased Tamsin and Rachel are on board and that they are excited about a new challenge at Storm."

Both players have collected three Superleague titles at Bath and Greenway - who has played two seasons in the ANZ Championship for Queensland Firebirds - leaves after eight years with the club.

"I was excited by the challenge at Storm and the offer they presented me," said Greenway, who was also recently selected for the World 7 Select team.

"I am really pleased to be part of their new look squad. I have had some fantastic times at Team Bath and am now looking forward to future successes with Surrey Storm."

Dunn, who helped England claim a bronze medal at the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, is also looking forward to a new start.

"It's great to be part of Storm's new squad and I am looking forward to training under Mary and with the whole squad," said Dunn.

Storm's England players are being rested following a gruelling international schedule, which included the World Netball Series and internationals against Australia and New Zealand.
