About Southern Steel

The Southern Steel are a New Zealand netball team based in Invercargill that compete in the ANZ Premiership. The franchise was formed as an amalgamation of two teams from the National Bank Cup: the Dunedin-based Otago Rebels and the Invercargill-based Southern Sting. After the National Bank Cup was retired in 2007, the newly formed Steel joined four other New Zealand franchises in the new ANZ Championship, representing the New Zealand regions of Otago and Southland. The ANZ Championship ran from 2008 to 2016, after which the Steel joined five other New Zealand teams in the new ANZ Premiership.

In its first five years, the team colours changed three times. In 2016 the team kit was primarily cyan blue, with black and pink. The Steel play most of their home games at ILT Stadium Southland in Invercargill and the Edgar Centre in Dunedin. In 2018 the team are coached by Reinga Bloxham, with Lauren Piebenga as assistant coach. Veteran midcourter Wendy Frew continues as team captain.
