A consistently strong performer at provincial level, Wellington wing attack/centre Karen Henrikson was first selected for the Silver Ferns in 1985.
A shrewd player, Henrikson was a real student of the game with a great understanding of all its nuances. A hard-working midcourter, Henrikson was at her best when the chips were down, a player who would always give 200 percent.
A solid trainer and gritty performer, Henrikson was a no frills type of player but could be counted on to execute the game plan and always give of her best.
The Silver Ferns went unbeaten in a busy 1985 which included the Australia Games, a home series against Trinidad & Tobago and a tour to the UK before crowning their year with the World Games title.
Often the practical joker, Henrikson was a great team member, her determination winning her reselection in 1986 which proved a challenging year for an injury-plagued Silver Ferns.
