We will lose more than our top netball professionals. Netball is us. It's being played in NZ on school courts through to sold out stadiums.

Silver Fern Amelia Walmsley says players will be forced to look overseas or leave netball altogether if Netball NZ doesn't quickly come up with a plan for the domestic competition."It baffles me and keeps me up at night, we wouldn't be having this conversation with an All Black. There is the biggest netball culture amongst NZ ... I can't quite figure it out.
"What makes me so sad is then what happens to little kids who dream of being a Silver Fern one day. It's heading into the next year and we don't know what that looks like and what pathway are we leaving for them if we don't have a strong domestic competition in New Zealand, what opportunities will they have?"
