Who will win Netball’s highest honour?

Tomorrow, Netball New Zealand will honour its best player with the presentation of the Dame Lois Muir Supreme Award.

The winner of the prestigious award will be announced at the 2nd New Zealand Netball Awards, brought to you by G.J. Gardner Homes, to be held at the Auckland War Memorial Museum on Thursday night.

The event will be broadcast live on SKY Sport 2 from 8pm (NZT), and include all the glitz and glamour from the Red Carpet, presented by Woman’s Day, before a gala dinner that will honour and celebrate excellence at all levels of the sport.

The Dame Lois Muir Supreme Award is the highest individual accolade a New Zealand Netballer can achieve. It recognises the best Netballer across the ANZ Championship and the Silver Ferns campaign.

Laura Langman took home the top award in 2015 - who will take home the night’s most prestigious accolade in 2016?

Tune in LIVE on SKY Sport 2 from 8pm on Thursday night to catch all the action from Netball’s biggest night – the 2nd New Zealand Netball Awards.
