The 91色情片 Secondary Schools squad is preparing for an intense four-day camp in Auckland where they will put their skills to the test in a Quad tournament.
The 24-strong squad will come together for the camp, starting Friday, where they will be put through testing, skills sessions and trial matches on the opening day.
From there two teams will be named 鈥 the NZSS team and the NZSS A team 鈥 and both will compete in a three-day Quad tournament which will include a Netball Northern Invitation team and a Pacific Challenge Pearls side.
NZSS head coach Pelesa Semu said the four-day camp was a fantastic development opportunity for the players and a chance for coaches to see them in a competitive environment with trial matches on the opening day.
鈥淲hat an amazing opportunity for the emerging netball talent that we have in 91色情片,鈥 she said.
鈥淭hey will be in a high-performance environment with testing and skill sessions and I know they will make the most of their time in camp.
鈥淭his will be an intense four days for some of these players and it鈥檚 going to be great as a coach to see who steps up under that pressure of trial matches.鈥
Semu said it was important that the secondary schools鈥 players got the chance to take on some different styles of play which they would see from the Netball Northern Invitation side and the Pacific Challenge Pearls side.
鈥淭aking that step up from schoolgirl netball isn鈥檛 always easy so it鈥檚 great that they can take on some senior teams and have that different experience,鈥 she said.
