Megan Hutton (born 26 March 1976 in Christchurch, New Zealand) is a New Zealand retired netball player. Hutton normally plays in the goal keeper position. She also played basketball for Southland.[1]
Hutton debuted in the Coca-Cola Cup (later the
Anna Veronese. After two years with the Canterbury franchise, Hutton transferred to the Southland-based Southern Sting. In 2004, Hutton moved north to play with the Capital Shakers, but after one year with the Wellington-based side, Hutton made a controversial return to the Sting,[2]
where she remained for the rest of the National Bank Cup.
The National Bank Cup concluded in 2007 with the Sting winning a closely fought 50–49 final over the Northern Force.[3] After the final National Bank Cup, Hutton moved to England and played in the 2007–08 Netball Superleague for Team Northumbria.[4] The inclusion of Hutton and two Australian imports were noted as contributing factors in Team Northumbria's improved performance over the season.[5]
She returned to New Zealand for the start of the
Canterbury Tactix, after veteran defender Anna Galvan sustained a wrist injury.[7]
