Mwawi returns to New Zealand today

Malawi’s sole netball export Mwawi Kumwenda is set to return to her New Zealand base this afternoon to join her team Tactix in preparation for the 2016 season.

The gangly shooter, who has been on holiday since July last year, said she is looking forward to another exciting season.

“I want to continue from where I stopped last season and work even harder so as to win as many awards and trophies as possible.

“I think I will even be a better player this coming season and I cannot wait to reunite with my team-mates.”

At the world tournament, Mwawi gave opposing defenders a torrid time, with both skill and rhythm—a spectacular play of brilliance so stunning in its quality which should have only been fit for the angels in their flight. n
