  • Courtney Tairi
    Courtney Tairi Height 5'10.5" Bust 33.5" Waist 28.5" Hips 33.5" Dress 8 US Shoe 9 US Hair Brunette Instagram As the saying goes, “Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity,” and it’s a concept that quite neatly sums up former Silver Fern Courtney Tairi’s career path to date. After nine years as a professional netball player, both in Australia and NZ, Courtney transitioned from playing for the Sliver Ferns and Magic, into a dream broadcasting career with SKY TV. It was whilst living in the “Magic House” with her netball teammates that a film crew from SKY Sport came through the player residence to see if a team member would like to do give a house tour. A natural in front of the camera and always up for trying anything once, Courtney volunteered; she hasn’t looked back, as her on-screen career continues to flourish. It was a surprisingly natural progression from mid-court player to side-court reporter for the Australian-born Kiwi, whose journey to the Silver Ferns was very unique. Courtney and her two sisters were raised in Sydney by a pakeha mother and father of Tainui, Ngati Koroki-Kahukura descent, so immersed her Maori heritage that she has always referred to herself as a Kiwi. Courtney took to the netball court at the tender age of seven, where she demonstrated an innate ability for the sport, playing competitively throughout her school years. She was first spotted by Julie Fitzgerald at 14 years old. Courtney went through the Australian Netball pathways, and after winning the Netball World Youth Cup in 2009, Fitzgerald selected Courtney to play with the New South Wales Swifts at age 21.

  • New Steel Membership 2021
    2021 For us, travelling to Auckland and playing away from home for 7 weeks straight was tough. Once we knew that we were coming home to play with our home crowd behind us, it lied our spirits and kept us fighting. It was such an emotional return to our Steel fortress. We all knew that we needed to play the best netball we had ever played to reward all of you for being such amazing, loyal supporters of our Steel team. The noise and energy that we get when we step out of those changing rooms and onto the main court is outstanding. The way you cheer from the beginning of the match right till the end helps us secure a win. You really are FROM THE our 8th player. As we look towards our 2021 campaign we’re excited for many reasons. With 8 home games and a new look team, it’s an opportunity for us to rebuild with some exciting players who are chomping at the bit to be given the opportunity to start in the ANZP. We are a little bit of the COACH unknown which will make us unpredictable and add an element of surprise. Firstly, we just want to say THANK YOU I believe we’ll have a good mixture of experience and for all your support! enthusiasm. Our Steel way is to keep possession of the 2020 was tough for us all, but throughout ball. We are a hard-working Club and that won’t change. our challenging 2020 campaign just Our girls will be prepared to grind it out and work till that knowing that you all were standing behind last whistle.
