Profile with New Zealand player Caitlin Mary Parker Allen (Source Stuff.co.nz):
 
There's nothing like a bit of sibling rivalry to motivate a young athlete's sporting career.
 
That is how junior national water polo player Caitlin Mary Parker Allen began her sporting career in the pool three years ago.
At 16 years old she is one of the youngest members of the New Zealand team that will play in the World Women's Youth Water Polo Championship next week in Auckland. The year 11 St Cuthbert's College student won the U16 Outstanding Player award for two years running in the club nationals competition.
Next week, Allen hopes she can prove herself against her older teammates. 
New Zealand is pooled with South Africa, Russia and Spain.
New Zealand take on South Africa in their first pool game on Monday.
