Inaugural CEO of Netball Waikato Bay of Plenty Zone (Netball WBOP) and Cold Power Magic, Tim Hamilton has announced he will step down from his role.
Julie Fitzgerald has stepped down as coach of the Cold Power Magic to return home to Sydney, Australia where she will take up the role of head coach of Netball NSW’s new team for the 2017 National Netball League in a 3-year appointment.
Cold Power Magic captain Leana de Bruin says that composure and freedom will be keys to success against the NSW Swifts in Monday night's ANZ Championship Semi-Final.
"It was certainly our strongest performance of the year, but we can definitely build on it and we'll find things we can improve on," - that's Cold Power Magic coach Julie Fitzgerald's assessment as the team now turns it's focus towards Sunday's ANZ Championship New Zealand Conference Final following yesterday's win.
After a false start a few weeks ago due to the re-aggravation of an early season calf injury, Cold Power Magic wing attack Grace Rasmussen is set to play her 100th ANZ Championship game on Sunday. While the quality midcourter naturally wants the focus to be on the team's performance in the New Zealand Conference Elimination Final against the Mystics, she is nevertheless proud of the looming milestone.
Monday night's Cold Power Magic home game against the defending champion Queensland Firebirds is already a huge match, but some key milestones should further add to the occasion.
Cold Power Magic shooter Malia Paseka has announced today that she and her partner Sam are expecting a baby later this year. As a result Malia will not play any further matches in the 2016 ANZ Championship, but has already indicated her desire to get back on court in 2017.
