Covid-19 hits Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic netballers

Two anticipated round five ANZ Championship netball games featuring the Waikato Bay of Plenty Magic have been postponed

The national league’s scheduled game this afternoon at 4.10pm between the Magic and the Southern Steel has been postponed under the league’s Covid-19 match postponement policy.

While tomorrow afternoon’s game between the Magic and the Northern Stars at 4.10pm will also be played at a later date.

League officials will release new dates when they become available.

That leaves fans without any national league action this weekend, however Monday night’s game between Te Wānanga o Raukawa Pulse and the Southern Steel will be played as scheduled at 7.15pm at TSB Bank Arena in Wellington.
