The New Zealand Senior Men's Team squads will consist of players from school-age to university students, and from professional players overseas to players in the work force. It is our aim to cater for all individual situations and we aim to include any player who commits to the programme and fulfils the requirements set by the National Teams Programme (NTP).

It is our aim to establish a nationwide training system and network where all our athletes, at all levels, are catered for.
