Netball NZ's Chief Executive has expressed disappointment over Victoria's withdrawal from hosting the 2026 Commonwealth games.
Victoria Premier Daniel Andrews informed the Commonwealth Games authorities that the estimated $6 billion cost was too prohibitively expensive.
CEO Jennie Wyllie says the Commonwealth Games are a unique and special experience for the New Zealand team.Â
"Normally when we go to our pinnacle events- and we're off to South Africa in 10 days- we travel as our own team with our supporters. Which is great, but for the Commonwealth Games, we travel with the New Zealand team."
