Hope White National Netball Selection

Ms JENNY AITCHISON (Maitland—Minister for Regional Transport and Roads)—Congratulations to All Saints College student Hope White on her selection in the Australian U/21 netball squad. Hope is in Year 12 at St. Mary's and will be touring Fiji in August to take part in the Rising Stars Tour. The tour will feature representative netball teams from Australia, Fiji, New Zealand and Singapore. The five-day tournament will provide valuable competition experience for the U21s teams ahead of the 2025 Netball World Youth Cup. This is not the first time Hope has been selected to a representative team for Australia. White was also selected in the U17's team when she was just 15. The mid-courter is regarded as one of the country's most promising young players. Hope is part of the Giants Netball Academy which focuses on providing a high-performance environment for the athletes to continue their development. Congratulations Hope on your selection and good luck in Fiji.
