Otago U21 Women Final Team Naming

7/5/2026

Otago Hockey is proud to announce the 2026 Otago U21 Women’s Team selected to compete at the Mainland Cup and Matariki Invitational Tournament. The squad features a strong mix of players who have come through the local Otago hockey pathway alongside those now based in Dunedin while studying and playing club hockey in the Otago competition. Representing clubs from across the New Balance Premier Women's competition, the team reflects the depth and quality of women’s hockey currently in the region. The tournament provides an exciting opportunity for the group to test themselves against quality opposition while continuing their development within the Otago performance pathway. Congratulations to all players selected and best of luck to the team as they prepare for the campaign ahead.
