Women's

The VUC team this year is a very well balanced one, having a solid core of most experienced a and seasoned players, along with one or two who are relatively new to the game but who are showing distinct promise.

We were runners-up to Otago last year from whom we are also expecting our stiffest opposition this year.

Team personalities ore:

Forwards: Ina Bowman a very experienced player who was explain of AUC last year and also in the NZU team. This year she has represented Wellington. Judy Davenport, a most promising player who was in the NZU team last year and is now in the Wellington representative training squad. Elisabeth Crisp is having her first season at indoor and has been promoted from the B Grade side for tournament She is a good outdoor player with a good pair of hands and should adapt herself well to the indoor courts.

Guards: Kath Bedingfield is one of the outstanding players in the side who repped for NZU last year and Wellington this year. A very confident and energetic person on the court. Penelope Riske is on the verge of the A team and was in the tournament team last year. Her play is neat and versatile. Julie Walpole is another first year player. Julie usually plays in the B team and is very tail with a good pair of hands. Hazel Blick (captain) has a very fine record and is in both the Wellington and NZU teams—she has been captain of the latter since 1958. Hasel is probably the best player in the side and a moat capable and popular leader.
