Press Release – Netball New Zealand
All crowd restrictions will be lifted for Sunday’s final Test between the Silver Ferns and Australian Diamonds in Christchurch.
The news comes after this afternoon’s announcement from the government that areas outside Auckland will drop to COVID-19 Alert Level 1 from 6am Sunday morning.
The fourth and final Test of the Constellation Cup, played as part of the Cadbury Netball Series, gets underway at 3.15pm on Sunday 7 March at Christchurch Arena.
Earlier this week Netball New Zealand announced all Tests would be played in Christchurch to minimise the risks around travel with Auckland in Level 3 lockdown and crowds over 100 not permitted across the rest of the country under Level 2.

New Zealand and Australia square off on the netball court this week, albeit with no crowds due to level 2, after the Covid-19 pandemic forced last year s series to be postponed. BRENDON EGAN looks at the juicy storylines.
Ferns’ chance to snap the drought? The Silver Ferns Constellation Cup record against Australia makes for grim reading. They have captured the trophy just once previously in 2012, since it was first contested in 2010. With Australia only scheduled to get out of managed isolation on Monday, the Ferns have a huge opportunity to start the series strongly and capitalise – if there is any quarantine rust from Australia. “That has been the message that has gone through with regard to where the Diamonds are and what they even have to do to get on court. We should take advantage of that,” Ferns coach Dame Noeline Taurua said.
