From First Up, 5:35 am on 27 July 2023

The FIFA World Cup may be in full swing but the Netball World Cup starts tomorrow night in South Africa with the Silver Ferns hoping they can defend the title they won four years ago. Their first game will be against Trinidad and Tobago- the Silver Ferns also have Uganda and Singapore in their pool. Former Silver Fern Adine Wilson captained the team to gold against old foes Australia at the 2006 Commonwealth Games. She had in an illustrious career as a shooter and wing attack. Adine reckons qualifying at the top of pool D should be a no-brainer for the Ferns.
