Super Netball Rookie of the Year Award
Australian netball award
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Super Netball Rookie of the Year Award, previously known as the Super Netball Young Star Award and colloquially as the Rising Star, is an annual Super Netball award in Australia.
It is an award recognising the outstanding on-court achievements of a Super Netball athlete. Previously to 2022, to be eligible for the award the netballer had to be aged under 23 years at the beginning of the season.[1] However, the award was modified to remove the age criterion and instead acknowledge any player who has played at least five games in their first year in the league.[2]
