== Historical squads and roster ==

=== 2000 Nationals squad ===

The team's contemporary Nationals report names eight travelling players:[1]

* Ryan Pike
* Peter Hamilton
* Jeremy Hooper
* Adon Upjohn
* Mark Waddell
* Glen Webber
* Mark Candy
* Evan Lewis

'''Margaret “Megz” Hamilton''' is separately credited with photography, video, scheduling and team support, rather than listed as a playing squad member.[1]

=== Hawke's Bay Triples squads, February 2001 ===

The event report uses several nicknames that are identified on the team's roster page.[1][2]

The source does not securely establish full names for Orange's '''Chris''' and '''Shane [R]'''.[1]

=== Northland Open squad, 25 February 2001 ===

The team's account names the following eight-player rotation:[1][2][4]

* Peter Hamilton
* Mark Candy
* Adon Upjohn
* Jeremy Hooper
* Evan Lewis
* Willy Aull
* Mark Waddell
* Ryan Pike

Rob Maddox's tournament report explicitly identifies House Steiner player '''Willy Aull''' as a guest playing for Phoenix at this event.[4]

=== Website roster preserved in February 2002 ===

An undated roster page survives in a '''6 February 2002''' archive capture. The capture date does not establish when the roster was compiled or that every listed person played together at a particular event.[2]

A separate section lists '''Evan “Forest” Lewis''' and '''James Courtenay''' among people who had played with the team. They are not presented as additional members of the main roster above.[2]

These historical lists do not establish Phoenix's membership in later seasons.
