“It has been an amazing ride,” said Ellis, who added that she wanted to spend extra time with her family after more than five years at the helm of the team. At this year’s World Cup in France, Ellis guided her side to victory in each of their seven games in what was arguably the greatest achievement in the team’s history, three years after they missed out on a medal at the 2016 Rio Olympics.
