    Connecting with local community one major career highlight for former Silver Fern Adine Wilson, named in Honours List

    Connecting with her local community is one of the major career highlights of former Silver Fern Adine Wilson, named as a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit in the King's Birthday Honours List


    A World Champion and Commonwealth Games gold medalist, Wilson has also excelled off the court...using her law degree to good effect in helping set up the NZ Netball Players Association.

    She's also part of the inaugural board for the Integrity Sport and Recreation Commission

    But the 79-test Silver Fern says being part of the team that made Southland netball-crazy is hard to beat as a fond memory.
