Jessica Maclennan (née Moulds; born 8 November 1989 in Helensville, New Zealand) is a New Zealand netball player, who currently plays for the Mainland Tactix in the ANZ Premiership. Formerly a shooter, she can play in the GK and GD positions.[1] Maclennan formally played for the Northern Mystics,[2] before joining the Tactix in 2014.[3]
Maclennan played for the Fastnet Ferns in the 2010 World Netball Series, where she won a gold medal.[4] She was also a part of the 2009 New Zealand U21 team, where she won a silver medal at the World Youth Championships.[5]
In 2012, Maclennan made the newspapers all over New Zealand, when she was a part of the 'Harrison Hoist' where she lifted team-mate Anna Harrison to deflect a shot above the rim.[6]
She is the older sister of New Zealand rugby union player Matt Moulds, who plays for the Blues in Super Rugby.
Moulds has a master's degree from the University of Otago, completed in 2013, with a thesis on the dietary habits of athletes with spinal-cord injuries.[7]
