Netball South Africa celebrated an epic billboard that has been put up to celebrate the Proteas and the upcoming Netball World Cup being hosted by South Africa.
Cape Town, South Africa (17 April 2023) – South Africa is set to host the 2023 Netball World Cup during July and August, making it one of the most significant women’s events to be ever hosted on the African continent. In the build up to the event, there is a lot to get excited about! The team revealed an awesome billboard which is promoting the proudly South African team.
The 2023 Netball World Cup will be hosted in Cape Town at the Cape Town International Convention Centre. Over the years, the country has proven itself worthy of hosting massive international sporting events. Having recently hosted the ICC Women’s T20 World Cup, the Mother City is the place to be for sports.
There will be a total of 16 teams involved in the World Cup. South Africa together with Australia, England, Jamaica, New Zealand, and Uganda got automatic qualification for the World Cup due to their world ranking. The rest earned spots through several rounds. The teams will play in four pools, with four teams each. There will be a total of 60 matches throughout the world cup.
The unveiling of the SPAR Proteas billboard was done last week and the excitment is building! Only 101 days to go (at the time of writing this!)
