Silver Fern stars have been caught shooting hoops and packing shopping for excited netball fans in Rotorua.
About six of the Silver Ferns, who are preparing to take on England at the Energy Events Centre tomorrow night, popped into New World Westend yesterday. Goal shoot Cathrine Latu said the team had a busy schedule but were happy to take time out to meet local supporters.
"I think it's good to see the not-so-big centres and bring international netball games [to them]. Lots of people can't make them when they are in Hamilton and Wellington, so we are really excited for the game.
"We have two trainings today, but we can't go sightseeing. We are just here for business."
Kayleigh Walker, 12, and Maya Hamilton, 12, won two tickets to the match through their goal-shooting skills. They planned to take their mums.
