Netball fans will be able to watch live matches from the NWC2023, taking place from July 28 to August 6 in Cape Town, South Africa. Coverage will also include match statistics, results, fixtures, standings, player, and team stats.
The OTT streaming service will be priced at GBP £5, with additional footage from the five Regional Netball World Cup Qualifiers.
