    Elevation to the Silver Ferns is slowly sinking in for Paris Lokotui

    Elevation to the Silver Ferns is slowly sinking in for Paris Lokotui


    The 22-year-old's gone from being without an ANZ Premiership netball contract at the start of the year due to a knee injury to a call up to the national squad.

    She was brought in by the Mainland Tactix mid-season as a replacement player.

    Lokotui says she learned of her selection via email.



    Lokotui's inclusion comes during a breakout basketball season in the Tauihi league for the Tokomanawa Queens.
