It’s a National League domestic competition for Netball in New Zealand called the ANZ Premiership where match reports throughout the mid-year are here.
Their six teams are the Northern Mystics, Central Pulse, Northern Stars, Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic, Maintland Tactix and Southern Steel.
Full credit to the noise following the Steel’s one-goal comeback win Netball 2025 Week 7 by none other than Georgia Heffernan at Goal Attack, who can sink in lots of amazing shots including at Super Shot time (the two-pointer), which shows she can get the job done at crucial moments like this tonight. Very important…
2025 ANZ Premiership – Who needs Carys Stythe (she’s a Steel player now in the South) when the Mystics have got Catherine Hall at goal keep? Not only she made this position her own with a number of intercepts & deflections but she worked well together at the back two with captain Michaela Sokolich-Beatson. Tayla…
ANZ Premiership Round 5 – Well, Mystics may not be able to have Donnell Wallam on the call right now but at least they’re so good at developing their own star-studded goal shooters – very important for the best of the community that extends to all high levels. Meet Sophia Lafaialii who had one hell…
ANZ Premiership Round 4 – Saviour Tui loves scoring goals for fun at goal shoot – always say that when I started following Netball again just a year ago which was simply outstanding. Since she was there in the week-long training camp to Sydney for the Ferns earlier this year, let’s hope Dame Noeline Taurua…
ANZ Premiership Round 3 – Versatile experienced shooters and even attackers Filda Vui and Peta Toeava worked wonders that was enough for the Mystics to bump off Steel at the finish line by just a mere one goal difference: 54-55. Vui can play in any goal circle position even goal shoot despite her lack of…
ANZ Premiership Round 1 – 1 week done, 9 more to go plus two extra when it comes to the Finals in this brand-new ANZ Premiership Season for 2025. Both Tactix and Steel were side-by-side for the most part even though Steel lacked some quality due to injury. But what made one team stood out…
Magic in Netball – Hats off to the Black Ferns first of all with yet another Trans-Tasman win v the Wallaroos this afternoon in Newcastle. That’s the team every other top rugby nation wants to emulate which does takes time but hopefully by the home World Cup in 2029, Wallaroos can be sure enough to…
International Netball may be over for now in 2024 but at least we witnessed such a stunning and a bit controversial Fast5 Netball tournament from Christchurch last weekend with the Aussies being crowned champions yet again. Yes, we had another Trans-Tasman rivalry this time at when both sides advanced into the Cup final beforehand knowing…
What a Grand Final we had just witnessed from TSB Bank Arena in Wellington through the best 60 minute tug-o-war between Minor Premiers Central Pulse and Defending champions and also last weekend’s Elmination Final winner Northern Mystics. Mystics fired off really well while Pulse overcame their poor start that follows up with an improved 2nd…
Netball News – Oh so close on what has been a cracking elimination final decider yesterday afternoon between the Mainland Tactix & Northern Mystics at Wolfbrook Arena in Christchurch. There can only be one winner who will go on to meet the Minor Premiers Central Pulse for next Sunday’s Final at TSB Arena in Wellington…
