A NEW teenage face could make her Saffery Panthers debut as the island side prepare for their first ever Division Two South encounter this weekend.

The headline squad news for the opening game, as well as the return from injury of Lorna Hall and recall for Kerri Brown, is the inclusion of 17-year-old Kerys Chamberlain.
The daughter of former Muratti footballer Chris, she plays second-tier Division One netball for Blaze B but has been training regularly with Panthers and has impressed.
