Legendary New Zealand striker Wendi Henderson, 78-cap Fern Anna Green and the Wellington Phoenix women’s team captain Lily Alfeld will help radio listeners enjoy the FIFA Women’s World Cup.
They have been confirmed as key members of the broadcast team to cover the tournament for SENZ (Sports Entertainment Network).
All Ferns games will be broadcast in full across the SENZ network, and fans can listen to all 64 games at the tournament through the SENZ online app.
Alongside the trio of women’s football experts, the broadcast team also includes commentators Daniel McHardy, Riccardo Ball and Sam Hewat.
Wendi Henderson
Wendi Henderson was the first New Zealander to represent her country at two FIFA Women’s World Cups, playing in 1991 and 2007.
She played 64 times for New Zealand.
Anna Green
Recently-retired Anna Green made 78 appearances for the football Ferns and was in the squad for the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
She was part of the Sydney squad that won the women’s A-League this year.
Lily Alfeld
Goalkeeper Lily Alfield missed the last women’s A-League season through injury but her off-field leadership was inspiring.
Her Wellington Phoenix club awarded her the Lloyd Morrison Spirit of the Phoenix award for her incredible attitude throughout the women’s season.
She has represented New Zealand at age group levels.
