Returning home to her south Auckland roots after plying her trade in Australia, playmaking shooter Amorangi Malesala will be back for a fourth season with the Stars in 2024. Previously limited to cameo roles, Malesala had a breakout season in 2023, making the most of her increased opportunities where she excelled with her variety, deceptive skill set and ice-cool ability to shoot from long range. A former captain of the Saint Kentigern College netball team, Malesala was a member of the NZSS team in 2015. Last season’s strong form earned her a spot in the 2023-24 Silver Ferns Development squad and she was subsequently selected in the Silver Ferns squad for the Nations Cup in 2024. Possessing a calm demeanour, the strongly-built shooter provides explosive impact through clever movement and ball-handling skills. Malesala is a talented shooter with plenty to offer on and off the court and has played a strong hand in the team’s cultural identity
