Courtney Duncan will be hoping her new team comes with some better luck than her previous one.

There are two ways to look at Southern United's season.

A second-half flurry proved from the hosts undid Southern United in its final game of the season.

Eleven meet records fell on the summer season's last day at the Caledonian Ground on Saturday.

Keeping  up with the Southern Steel is proving a difficult task.

Fifth spot is secured and the top four are out of reach - but Southern United still has plenty to play for.

Henry Nicholls is hoping to finish a breakout summer on a high note.

Ben Mason was the star of a successful weekend for Otago schools on the water.

Stopping the Southern Steel attack has proved difficult over the past three games.

A rampant  second quarter set the platform and the rest followed.

Te Huinga Reo Selby-Rickit is glad to be home - now she cannot wait to play there.

It took a while to get going, but Otago eventually fired to win one of its two season-opening games.

The bags of Otago athletes would have been a little heavier on the return trip from Christchurch.

It created enough chances to win two games.

Massive progress, but still room to grow. That was Paul O'Reilly's summation of Southern United's past three seasons.

If a return to the national basketball league is being considered, today could be a key stepping stone.

Otago's distance runners may be its best chances of medals in the senior grades of the weekend's track and field national championships.

It might not be on the world stage, but a medal tomorrow would be significant for Holly Robinson.

Experience will sandwich youth in the Highlanders backline this week.

It is lucky the Highlanders have plenty of depth in their loose forwards.
