Mavericks name midcourt ace Parmenter as captain

After settling on their inaugural skipper, Melbourne Mavericks coach Tracey Neville is still to finalise their Super Netball squad after a horrific injury to star goal shooter Sasha Glasgow.

The Mavericks have named star wing defence Amy Parmenter to lead the side into their first season, with the start-up club replacing defunct Collingwood in the competition.
