2026 Selection

NHV are trialling a different approach to the open group team in 2026. Selectors will be on the ground during round one of the NHV competition. Players will be invited to attend the under 21/ open age group trial in July with a team(s) selected to attend two local events and one team will attend the championship event in September. 

If players do not wish to be selected for trials please advise NHV early in round one. The selectors will observe premier games and will also look to senior grades to ensure we have a good positional balance of players invited to the trial. Up to 12 players will be named in the team that travels to Napier.
