Constellation Cup

The Samsung Diamonds will bring International netball to Sydney and Perth in October as part of the 2019 Constellation Cup Series.

Following their gold medal game at the Netball World Cup 2019 in Liverpool (UK), which saw the Silver Ferns claim a one goal victory, 52-51, the Samsung Diamonds will be out to turn the tables during this year’s four game series.

Defending title holders Australia will host game three of the coveted trans-Tasman series at Sydney’s Qudos Bank Arena on Sunday 20 October and game four at RAC Arena in Perth on Sunday 27 October.

The rivalry between the Diamonds and Silver Ferns is one of the world’s most historic, respected, intense sporting rivalries producing some of the most thrilling and nail-biting encounters, with the two countries having battled each other for netball supremacy since 1938.

Australia has won the Constellation Cup on eight of nine occasions since its inception in 2010 and defeated New Zealand in three out of the four games in 2018.
