NZ's World Cup Finals squads
These are the players who have appeared for New Zealand at various World and Confederations Cups and Olympics Finals over the years.
NB NZ Football, in their wisdom, opted to change the names by which their national age-grade teams were identified in the late 2000s, an action which, from a historic perspective, causes no end of confusion.
The Junior All Whites title, previously the handle of the U-17s, was switched to the U-20s, with the U-17s becoming the Young All Whites ... not hard to see where confusion would arise, eh? (As for why there needed to be a title change anyway ... if it ain't broke, don't fix it!!)
For the purposes of this site, these title changes have been ignored - it is considered more appropriate to maintain continuity from a historic perspective than to rewrite it just to accommodate mere cosmetics!
To assist with the identification of the teams which have played in FIFA tournament finals, the age-grade has been noted under the title by which the team concerned has been historically known.
Also, the colour schemes for the individuals below:
White - maiden squad appearance at a FIFA tournament finals
Blue - second squad appearance
Green - third squad appearance
Red - fourth squad appearance
Yellow - fifth squad appearance
Purple - sixth squad appearance
Royal Blue - seventh squad appearance
