The 2024 Constellation Cup was the 14th Constellation Cup series between Australia and New Zealand. It featured four netball test matches, played in October 2024.[1][2][3][4] New Zealand had just lost the preceding 2024 Taini Jamison Trophy Series 2–1 to England. However, after winning the first three tests, they eventually won the series 3–1. This was the first New Zealand Constellation Cup win since 2021 and only their third ever in the history of the series. The winning New Zealand team was coached by Noeline Taurua and captained by Ameliaranne Ekenasio. The Australia team were coached by Stacey Marinkovich and captained by Liz Watson.[5][6][7][8][9][10] The series was broadcast live on Sky Sport in New Zealand, on Foxtel in Australia and worldwide on NetballPass.[1][3][4][11][12]

Series Decider Time

[edit]

Before the series, a new ruling was announced to determine a winner in the event of the series ending 2–2. Each match of the 2024 Constellation Cup will be played to an outright result. If a match is tied at full time, extra time will be implemented as per the World Netball Rules of netball. Series Decider Time will be played to determine the outright winner of the Constellation Cup trophy. Scores will return to zero and play will consist of two seven-minute halves, with a half-time interval of four minutes. If, at the end of Series Decider Time, the scores are tied, the match will move into a period of Series Decider Additional Time. In the event of a draw at the end of extra time, play will continue until one team leads by two goals. There will be no break in play between Series Decider Time and Series Decider Additional Time.[3][15][16]
