Ex-England netball coach Tracey Neville says international netball must work together

Former England netball head coach Tracey Neville says international netball must work together to 'come up with a league calendar that conforms with each other'.

Netball leagues and international duties from across the globe has been suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak. 

And Neville believes this is the perfect opportunity to revise the calendar. 

She said on Sky Sports' Off The Court': "This is a unique opportunity to be able to get together and come up with a league [calendar] that conforms with each other.

"Australia and New Zealand have both postponed their seasons too. Then you've got the international Quad Series in the diary for September but at the moment, that doesn't look like it's going to run.

"These domestic leagues are saying that they're going to start at some point this year and I think, working together as international netball to coordinate them, would really set the precedent in respect to leading into a really slick international season."
