Southern Force defender and Adelaide Thunderbirds 2022 training partner Molly Watson will undergo surgery in the coming days after scans confirmed a tear in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in her left knee.
Watson sustained the injury in Game 3 of the Australian Netball Championships (ANC) in Traralgon last week and missed the remainder of the tournament.
Last week, the defender was chosen in the 21/U Australian squad as recognition for her performances in the lead up to and during ANC.
The Adelaide Thunderbirds will continue to support Watson as she progresses through her recovery.
