The season will start on Saturday, March 26 and finish earlier due to the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, which will be held from Thursday, July 28 to Monday, August 8.
Netball Australia CEO Kelly Ryan said the league had balanced its commitment to deliver a 60-game season in 2022 with preparation for the Commonwealth Games.
“We’re thrilled that a start date has been locked away, now our clubs and stakeholders have a date to work towards and fans can start to get excited for the start of the season,” Ryan said.
“The 2022 season marks the beginning of an exciting new chapter for the Suncorp Super Netball competition, as we commence a new five-year broadcast deal with the Foxtel Group.
“The Commonwealth Games is one of the biggest stages for our sport, and we have brought forward the season to ensure the Australian Diamonds and international athletes have the best possible preparation.”
Super Netball season starting earlier
NETBALL fans won’t have to wait as long with the Suncorp Super Netball League to return, with the season to begin in March, two months earlier than in previous years.
