Noeline Taurua feels no pressure taking on the ailing Silver Ferns two weeks out from the Quad Series.
"I'm not really going to talk myself up but I'm here, and I can make a difference," Taurua said. "It's a very quick turnaround and I think that's why I love the challenge of it."
Taurua was unveiled by Netball New Zealand as the 11th Silver Ferns head coach on Thursday to replace Janine Southby, who resigned from the role in July after the national body's damning review findings into her tenure.
The Ferns' Commonwealth Games failure put a dent in New Zealand's place among international netball's elite sides, and although tasked with the enormous challenge of turning the team around in time for next July's World Cup, Taurua said she didn't feel any added pressure.
