Hertfordshire Mavericks have completed their squad for the upcoming Vitality Netball Superleague season with the signing of experienced New Zealand star Keshia Grant.
The mid-court player brings six years of experience playing in the ANZ championship with Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic, Northern Mystics and Mainland Tactix.
Grant, 29, is also an exceptional all-round athlete having represented her country in both rugby sevens and javelin.
"I look forward to this exciting new challenge and experience with the Mavericks netball family in the 2017 season," Grant said. "I will endeavor to help the team reclaim the Championship title whilst building the sport within the local community."
Head coach Robyn Broughton is looking forward to seeing Grant competing for the Mavericks in the coming season.
"She has a diverse range of sporting skills and I feel confident she will fit well with the Mavericks squad," Broughton said. "I look forward to coaching her and anticipate her continual progress as a member of the Mavericks family."
