Important SN update for Southland"All in": Mavs lock up first re-signing
SEN • July 2nd, 2025 10:00 am
The Melbourne Mavericks have made their first move in the 2025 trade a re-signing period locking down captain Amy Parmenter for the 2026 season.
The inaugural captain, who has led her side for the first two seasons in the Suncorp Super Netball, put pen to paper on a 12-month contract extension.
The move will bring stability and regular starting position to the 27-year-old in a crucial Diamonds year which will include the Commonwealth Games after the SSN season.
“I am so excited to be locked in with the Mavs for at least one more year,” she said. “It’s been tough at times, but we have built so much in the last year and a bit, and the team is really making moves, which is something I’m really proud of.
“My partner and I have bought a house in Melbourne and we’re really settled here now, so I’m going all in and looking forward to continuing to see the growth of our club both on and off the court.”
With the current Suncorp Super Netball (SSN) broadcast and digital rights deal between Netball Australia and the Foxtel Group expiring at the end of next year, the end of the 2026 SSN season is the longest any club can contract a player for this point in time.
Mavs General Manager, Shae Bolton-Brown, added that Parmenter’s signature was a crucial one team management were looking to secure to ensure the stability of the young club.
“Amy is a key member of our Mavs family; her leadership and guidance inspires everyone to be their best, no matter what their role is with the Mavs.
"She is a crucial cog in the machine on the court, and her ability also to read plays and her 100% effort into every game is something we want our entire team to leverage off.
“We are so lucky to have a human of Amy’s calibre leading our club both on and off the court."
