The Australian Netball Awards is netball's 'night of nights', held every year at the conclusion of domestic and international calendars; a time when the netball community comes together to celebrate the achievements of players, coaches, officials and media.

New Idea was at the awards night to present the New Idea Favourite Diamond Player of the Year Award. And our Marketing Director Narelle Riley was there to present the award.

And the winner for 2012 as voted by you (our readers) is... Catherine Cox!

Narelle presented Catherine with a gorgeous 18ct white gold pendant with white diamonds on 18ct white gold chain valued at $2000 kindly donated by Michael Wilson Diamond Jewellers.
