Jamaica’s team for the upcoming Fast5 Netball World Series in New Zealand has been unveiled.
The squad, which is missing the likes of Shamera Sterling-Humphrey, Jhaniele Fowler-Nembhard, Kadie-Ann Dehaney and Latanya Wilson who play in the Suncorp Super Netball League, includes Amanda Pinkney, Cornelia Walters, Kestina Sturridge, Kimone Shaw, Paula-Ann Burton, Roxanna McLean, Shadine Bartley, Simone Gordon, Tiffaney Langley and Zaudi Green.
Nardia Hansen and Dalton Hines are the co-coaches.
The Fast5 World Netball Series, slated for November 9-10 at Wolfbrook Arena in Christchurch, will be contested by the top six teams on the World Netball Rankings.
The no.4 ranked Jamaicans have been handed a difficult task having been drawn to open their account against no.2 ranked New Zealand before opposing third ranked England.
They will then close out the first day of the two-day event against South Africa before playing two-time defending champions Australia and then Uganda on the second and final day.
The top two teams at the end of the group stage will advance to the final with next highest placed teams battling it out in a third and fourth place playoff.
The Sunshine Girls are chasing their first title, having finished second twice in 2017 and 2018.
