Support for netball's new send-off rule from former Silver Ferns coach Yvonne Willering heading into the second round of the ANZ Premiership

Support for netball's new send-off rule from former Silver Ferns coach Yvonne Willering heading into the second round of the ANZ Premiership

18 April 2024

The first round saw four players given two-minute suspensions for dangerous contact - a law introduced by World Netball as part of a focus on player safety.

Willering says the ruling forces players to clean up their defensive game.
