Constellation Cup dates confirmed
April 11, 2023
The Australian Diamonds will take on the Silver Ferns in the Cadbury Netball Series for the Constellation Cup, as announced by Netball New Zealand (NNZ), playing two Tests across the Tasman and two in New Zealand.
NNZ Chief Executive Jennie Wyllie said she was excited the Constellation Cup matches were to be played both in New Zealand Australia.
“Obviously all eyes are on Cape Town in South Africa for July’s Netball World Cup and the Silver Ferns’ focus is solely on defending their title,” she said.
Australia hosts the first leg of the Constellation Cup with Tests in Melbourne and Brisbane, with ILT Stadium Southland in Invercargill the venue for the third Test in the series (19 October) and the fourth Test to be played at Spark Arena in Auckland on 23 October.
The Silver Ferns last met Australia at the Netball Quad Series in South Africa in January, going down to the Diamonds by six goals in a hotly contested final.
Australia currently holds the Constellation Cup after a drawn series (2-2) last year.
