Emily Hollingworth and Tuaine Keenan will join Loughborough Lightning from Team Northumbria.
Hollingworth said: "I'm really excited to be part of Loughborough Lightning this year - we've got an awesome bunch of girls and with [head coach Sara Bayman's] experience I think we can do some great things in the league. I'm certainly looking forward to the new challenge."
Bayman, is delighted to add yet more talent to her growing side, added: "Tuaine has shown her ability to compete with the best shooters in this league and win ball at crucial times for her team.
"She is an extremely smart player who positions herself well and has excellent footwork. Her experience and differing style provide us with options around our defensive game plan. Emily has an excellent defensive game and provides the team with flexibility across the midcourt options.
"She is an exciting player who has flown under the radar in recent years but has all the attributes to do great things this season."
Stick with us through the off-season as we reflect on the campaign, track the England internationals and the latest player movements ahead of a huge 2019 which will feature another thrilling Superleague season and the Netball World Cup.
