Hannah Crawford and Olive Morris have been named in the 12-strong team to compete at the School Sport Australia Netball Championships at Caloundra, Queensland, from July 21 to 26.

Fellow Gee Tees player Ellie Marshall, who attends Port Dalrymple School at George Town, was named as a training partner for the squad, setting her in good stead for selection to the team next year.

The squad had undergone rigorous training in the lead-up to the titles, and Olive's mother, Caroline Morris, of Launceston, said the girls were particularly excited at the opportunity to work with former internationals Natalie Medhurst and Ashleigh Brazill, who both play for Collingwood Magpies in Australian domestic league.

"It has been a great opportunity for the girls and Olive was excited to be selected in the team after being a training partner last year," Caroline said.

She has been playing netball since she was 10 and her preferred positions are goal shooter, goal attack and wing attack.

Proud dad Mark Crawford said Hannah was rapt at her selection.

"She was worried that she would be too short to make the team," he added.
