Paris Lokotui
Netball
LT McGuinness
After completing an impressive debut season at the elite level in 2021, talented Netball midcourter Paris Lokotui suffered a serious knee injury the following year but bounced back strongly in the latter part of 2023 with the Tactix.
She will be back with the red-and-blacks in 2025 poised to deliver on her growing stature following a stellar 2024 campaign. The strongly-built midcourter has already represented New Zealand in three different sports – netball (NZU21, NZ Secondary Schools), basketball (Junior Tall Ferns) and water polo (NZU16).
Originally an in-circle defender, Lokotui has since been re-modelled into primarily a wing defence/centre while capable of adding cover at goal defence and has come along in leaps and bounds. With a strong all-round skill-set and imposing presence, Lokotui, a member of the NZ A and Silver Ferns Development squads, is well-primed to scale new heights.
