NETBALL SOUTH AFRICA INVITES PLAYERS FOR TRAINING CAMP
24 January 2024, Pretoria – Following a series of retirements from some senior players in the SPAR Proteas setup and the lapses of performance contracts signed by the players, Netball South Africa has invited a total of thirty players to a training camp in Stellenbosch with the view of awarding new contracts. The federation had contracted around twenty-four players back in 2022 with these being performance-based contracts expected to run until the end of the 2023 Netball World Cup.
