Vitality Netball Legends Series between England and Jamaica cancelled
Wednesday, 6 January 2021
Jamaica's four-game netball tour of England has been cancelled due to extended restrictions to international travel during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The contest, branded as the Vitality Netball Legends Series, was scheduled to take place this month at London's Copper Box Arena.
Concerns about the viability of staging the event were raised after the Jamaican Government banned flights to and from the United Kingdom for 14 days because of a new strain of coronavirus, thought to be up to 70 per cent more transmissible.
This was initially due to expire on January 4, two days before the Sunshine Girls are due to fly to the UK, but has since been extended until January 31.
