Wānaka teen footballer on her way to the States

Wānaka footballer Saffron Millar has the world at her feet as she makes a move to further her career in the United States.

Millar, 17, spent her final secondary school year in Wellington last year so she could train and play with the Ole Football Academy.

That led to the former Mount Aspiring College pupil being selected to play for the national secondary schoolgirls team to compete at the Texas Dallas Cup tournament, giving her a taste of international experience.
