Northern Mystics are a New Zealand netball team based in Auckland. Between 2008 and 2016, they played in the ANZ Championship. Since 2017 they have represented Netball Northern in the ANZ Premiership. Netball Northern is the governing body that represents the Auckland and Northland Regions. In 2021, Mystics won their first premiership and in 2023 they won their second.

History

Formation

Northern Mystics were formed in 2007. The new team was effectively a merger of the two former National Bank Cup teams, Northern Force and Auckland Diamonds. Mystics subsequently became founder members of the ANZ Championship. [1] [2] [3] Yvonne Willering became Mystics first head coach and Temepara George became Mystics first player. [1] [3] [4] [5]

ANZ Championship

Between 2008 and 2016, Mystics played in the ANZ Championship. On 6 April 2008, Mystics made their ANZ Championship debut in a match against Canterbury Tactix at The Trusts Arena, losing 44–48. [6] [7]

In 2011, with a team coached by Debbie Fuller and captained by Temepara George, Mystics reached their first grand final. They finished the regular season fourth behind Queensland Firebirds, Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic and New South Wales Swifts. [3] [7] [8] [9] [10] During the regular season, Mystics claimed their first win in Australia, with a 56–54 win over West Coast Fever in Round 9. [7] [11] [12] Mystics defeated Swifts in the minor semi-final [13] [14] and Magic in the preliminary final [15] [16] before losing to Firebirds in the grand final. [10] [17] [18] Mystics finished the season second overall. [19]

In 2012, Mystics finished second on the table after the regular season. However, they subsequently lost the major semi-final to Melbourne Vixens and the preliminary final to Magic and finished in third overall. [7] On 20 May 2012, during a Round 8 match against Vixens, Mystics introduced the Harrison Hoist. Anna Harrison made several vital blocks while being hoisted rugby union lineout-style by her defensive partners. Harrison was lifted first by Kayla Cullen and then twice in the final quarter by Jessica Moulds. Mystics won the match 49–45. [3] [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] Cullen and Moulds adopted the role of a lineout lifter to hoist Harrison and the move had the desired result in the final quarter when Vixens goal shooter Karyn Howarth's goal-bound shots were twice batted away. [20] [26]

In 2015, Mystics went through the regular season unbeaten against their fellow New Zealand teams and topped the New Zealand Conference. [27] [28] However they subsequently lost the Conference final to Magic [29] and a semi-final to Firebirds. [30] [31] [32]
