NZ A team announced for Cadbury Netball Series

Netball New Zealand has announced the NZ A team to compete at next month’s Cadbury Netball Series.

The NZ A team will meet the Silver Ferns, NZ Men and for the first time in history, a NZ Invitational Mixed team at Pulman Arena in Auckland from 13-16 July.

The side will be coached by Reinga Bloxham who has guided the Southern Steel in the ANZ Premiership for the past six seasons, assisted by Tactix coach Marianne Delaney-Hoshek.

She said she was looking forward to getting the best out of the side for the four-day series in Auckland.

“This is a great opportunity for both myself and a group of very experienced netballers. I’m really excited to be a part of the Cadbury Netball Series with such a strong group of athletes who are certainly going to push any opponent they meet at Pulman Arena.”

The NZ Invitational Mixed team will be named at a late date, while this will be the Silver Ferns last hit-out before the New Zealand side departs for Birmingham on 21 July.
