Gemma Dowling, Molly Kay, Tivinia Misiloi, Whitney Cleveland, Amanda Sheehan and Brytnee Firman were selected to play for the U17 North Otago netball team this season. The team, captained by Whitney and coached by Kate Mihaere and Georgina Salter, had a very positive season achieving excellent results. In their first tournament, the South Canterbury Tournament, they were unbeaten with wins vs South Canterbury, Selwyn A and Selwyn B. The North Otago Netball Centre hosted the South Zone Tournament at the beginning of July and North Otago finished very creditable Runners up to Southland in an exciting home final. Thank you to everyone who came out to support the girls in the final. The team then competed in the National U17 tournament in Rangiora, the first time North Otago has been represented at this level in more than 20 years. The team played very well finishing in 26th place out of the 40 entered teams. This was a great achievement. The girls represented North Otago with pride. Very well done girls.
