Nine has lost the broadcast rights to Super Netball and Australian Diamonds matches (excluding Netball World Cup and Commonwealth Games) to Foxtel from 2022 to the end of 2026.
“We are disappointed that after working with netball to grow the game for the past five years we find they have taken the deal with Foxtel which is supported by government money which we don’t have access to,” a Nine spokeswoman said.
The news came just a couple of hours after Nine revealed its commentary team for the rugby union coverage on the network and Stan.
