The Bendigo FNL is proud to announce its 2025 17 & Under Netball Representative Squad, following a competitive selection process.

Over the course of two high-quality trials, selectors were impressed by the skill, athleticism and game sense on display, which highlights the impressive depth of netball talent throughout the BFNL. With so many players putting their best foot forward, narrowing down the final squad was no easy task.

BFNL 17 & Under Co-Coach Alison Leech praised the standard of competition throughout the selection process, “The talent at trials was outstanding. The intensity, commitment and drive shown by all athletes made the selection process extremely difficult, which is a great problem to have,”

Leech said, “We’re incredibly excited by this group – not just for their skill level, but also their willingness to learn, support each other, and represent the BFNL with pride.”

The selected squad will now begin preparations for upcoming representative opportunities.
