Nik Tzanev's preparations for this month's Under-20 World Cup are continuing as the 18-year-old met up with his teammates.
The Brentford goalkeeper, who made 20 appearances for the Youth Team this season, was selected in Darren Bazeley's 21 man squad earlier this month.
Nik joined up with his teammates last week and took part in a special Moari ceremony ahead of the tournament on Saturday.
The Black Ferns played their first warm-up match on Thursday as they were beaten 2-1 by Honduras in Warkworth.
New Zealand took the lead through Bill Tuiloma early on in the first-half but goals from Brian Rochez Meija and Albert Elis Martinez either side of half-time saw the hosts fall to defeat.
Nik wasn't involved in the match but will hope to be involve in New Zealand's final preparation match against Austria on Sunday.
The tournament proper begins next weekend with New Zealand facing Ukraine in the tournament's opening match.
The hosts then face USA and Myanmar in their other two Group A matches.
Nik made his New Zealand Under-20 debut in April in a friendly away in Uzbekistan shortly before signing his first professional contract to be part of Brentford's Development Squad for next season.
