Papatoetoe Rangers Netball Club

Netball New Zealand is deeply saddened by the passing of former Silver Ferns captain Ana Noovao, who died peacefully on Sunday surrounded by her family in Rockhampton, Queensland, aged 58.

A gifted attacker with natural creativity and a beautiful feed, Ana debuted for the Silver Ferns in 1989, aged 21. She was named the 15th captain of the Silver Ferns in 1992 and played 23 tests in black across four seasons.

Proud of her Cook Islands heritage, she went on to play two seasons for the Cook Islands and later coached them to seventh at the 2007 World Netball Championships.

Her greatest legacy may be the players she taught. Generations of South Auckland schoolgirls came through her sessions, and more recently she kept building the game in her Queensland community.

Our aroha is with Ana's whānau, her friends and the netball community in Aotearoa, the Cook Islands and Australia.
Moe mai rā, Ana.

✨Friday 7th August, we celebrated our Years 1-4, 2026 season.

Nga mihi nui kia koutou katoa, thank you to all our players, whanau, volunteers and wider club for helping us to make this another memorable, amazing season for our babies.
