The World Netball Series will take place at the Echo Arena Liverpool from the 25th -27th November 2011.  Following last years competition, this promises to deliver netball with the "wow" factor once again.  England, New Zealand, Australia, Jamaica, South Africa and Fiji complete this years line up.

 
For the big one England were tackling New Zealands Fast Net specialist side and started the right way by converting their centre. Sonia Mkoloma forced the Silver Ferns to put the ball out of court and with a swift return down court England were 2-0 ahead. The advantage held for a more than half of the quarter before a couple of individual errors gave New Zealand the chance to turn the tide and by the whistle they were 7-5 in front.
World Netball Series Final result - England 33 - 26 New Zealand
