When new Silver Fern, Grace Nweke, had her test debut last night, as Goal Shoot against the England Roses, someone special was watching closely.
England beat the Silver Ferns 55 to 45 in the second of their three tests, levelling the series at 1-all with the decider on Friday.
Millie Manuel-Nathan, president of the New Jaks Club, spotted the Nweke five years ago, encouraging her into netball.
She spoke to Corin Dann.
