19 & Under Men added to Trans Tasman fixture

AMMNA and New Zealand Men's & Mixed Netball have agreed on dates for the 2012 Transa Tasman Cup.

The Australian Sonix teams will each play a 3 Test Series, with all tests scheduled to take place in Auckland, New Zealand.

The series will kick off on Monday October 8th.  The second tests will be played on Wednesday October 10th, with the series culminating on Saturday October 13th.

Australian Sonix teams will be selected at the Australian Championships this April on the GOLD COAST.  Players will be desperate to impress the selectors, who will be selecting touring teams in Open Men's, Open Mixed, 23 & Under Men's, and for the first time 19 & Under Men.

AMMNA has been striving to add the 19's to its international program for a number of years.  AMMNA President, Grant Crocker stated, "this is wonderful news for our elite juniors and our organisation.  Exposure to international competition only ever fast tracks a players development".
