As New Zealand prepares to host the ICC Women's Cricket World Cup 2022, official sponsor ANZ is seeking the next generation of female cricketing talent to join the ANZ Next XI.
Northland cricket-lovers are invited to apply for the White Ferns junior academy by Monday, February 7.
Eleven young women, aged 12-18, will be selected from across New Zealand to join the ANZ Next XI.
Winners will attend an exclusive White Ferns junior training academy, where they will meet the players, train with the team, attend expert-led masterclasses, and learn valuable skills to inspire them to become the best cricketers they can be.
White Ferns all-rounder Suzie Bates said she can't wait to meet the ANZ Next XI.
