Get set for some intense year-end netball action as the Nations Cup returns for its spectacular ninth edition in Singapore from 7-13 December.

This year the competition will take place at the OCBC Arena - the site of Singapore's recent triumph in the Mission Foods Asian Netball Championships.

As the hosts Singapore prepare for next year's SEA Games and World Cup, they face some stiff competition from Botswana (ranked 16th in the world), Ireland (28th), Malaysia (23rd), Papua New Guinea (17th) and Samoa (14th).

Singapore are currently ranked 19th in the world so they will be counting on your home support throughout the week to spur them on to tackle these tough teams from around across the continents.

Not only can you cheer on the girls from the stands, you will have the chance to meet Singapore in person during special appearances at the Fan Zone throughout the week.

Share the fun with your friends and capture the moment at the Nations Cup photo booth; pick up some of the exclusive Nations Cup merchandise and before the Opening Ceremony, Maria Tutaia – current New Zealand goal shooter and a Commonwealth Gold Medallist will be holding a meet and greet. Pose with a true legend of the sport!
