    Silver Ferns coach Dame Noeline Taurua believes Magic defender Erena Mikaere proves age has no boundaries

    Silver Ferns coach Dame Noeline Taurua believes Magic defender Erena Mikaere proves age has no boundaries


    The 36-year-old has been named in the Fern's wider squad for upcoming series against England and Australia....and will also also play in November's FAST-5 Netball World Series in Christchurch.

    Mikaere, who sometimes plays club netball with her teenage daughter, hasn't worn the black dress since her first and only test cap in 2019.

    Taurua says Mikaere's earned her spot five years later through taking her large presence to a new level.
