Before we get to the 'power play' we have to get the Americans to understand Naismith's original invention!!

I can't wait for the US to be able to field a strong team. Obviously it will never be a national sport there but they have the population to be able to field a competitive team that in 20+ years could be up there with jamaica and England as a bronze medal contender. I'd love to see Brazil, China and Cuba on board too. Their B'ball and volleyball players would be great assets. I wanna see a Cuba v Jamaica W' Chmap GF in 2032!

I think its great that USA are introducing Netball to their country, me, being from New Zealand where Netball is one of our main sports, the NZ Silver Ferns, our National Netball team are great sportswomen, I also play Netball myself and I know the physicality and competitiveness of the sport,  its great to have the Americans taking part in a Commonwealth Sport and i wish yous all the best
