The Netball World Cup kicks off this week in South Africa, with the reigning champs the Silver Ferns looking to repeat their success from 2019.
But as they head to their biggest competition since the Commonwealth Games, our netball greats will need to perform better than their bronze performance in that tournament if they hope to secure another world title.
What are the challenges facing them this time around, and how likely is victory going to be?
NZ Herald/Newstalk ZB sports reporter Nathan Limm is covering the event for NZME from South Africa. He joins Damien on The Front Page to discuss what to expect from Netball’s biggest moment.
