Sunday Aryang and Trinity Rond have been selected in the 2019/20 Australian Netball World Youth Cup Squad  ahead of the 2021 Netball World Youth Club in Suva, Fiji.

The 24-member squad has been selected based on performances in Suncorp Super Netball, the Deakin University Australian Netball League, the National Netball Championships and training camps throughout 2019.

18-year-old Sunday Aryang who plays for the West Coast Fever in Suncorp Super Netball is joined by 16 year old Trinty Rond with the pair two of Australia’s exciting young netball talents.

“The future of Australian netball is looking very bright with the calibre of athletes myself and the selectors were presented with during this process,” said World Youth Cup team coach Kylee Byrne.

“It’s exciting to be kicking off our World Youth Cup campaign with such a strong squad and I’m really looking forward to working with this group over the next 19 months to bring home that Cup in 2021.”

The squad will first meet at the Australian Institute of Sport in Canberra in February 2020 for a four-day training camp that will commence Netball Australia’s 2021 Netball World Youth Cup campaign.

A second selection will be made in August 2020, with those athletes representing Australia on a Tour of Fiji at the end of 2020 to prepare them for international competition.

Australia has a strong history at the Netball World Youth Cup four times, winning four times, with 10 out of the 18 current Samsung Australia Diamonds squad members having played in a World Youth Cup tournament earlier in their career.
