Netball under-21 team called up

Netball Namibia earlier this week announced a group of under-21 players who will represent the country during the World Under-21 Cup qualifiers in Botswana in July.
The team consists of players from all regions who were selected at trials held last Saturday, 23 April.
Julienne Meyer is the team’s head coach with Manuel Tjivera as her assistant. Imelda Nerongo will be the team manager for the Botswana trip.
Should the women be successful in their attempt to qualify for the international event for their age group, they will have an advantage as Botswana will be the host of the Under-21 World Cup.
