TOURNAMENT SCORES
This invitational tournament was organised and hosted by CDCA in Manawatū. In its second year, it was bigger than ever, running from 15 to 18 January 2024 at Fitzherbert, Ongley and Manawaroa Parks in Palmerston North
CD was in a position to name two CD Women's Under 17 teams for the invitational tournament, against four of the other five NZ Major Associations - with all but Canterbury able to attend
Final selections for the CD teams were made after the CD Years 11-13 Girls tournament in Whanganui in late December, with the "CD U18 Gold" team including some over-17 girls
