The Netball South Africa Diamond Challenge is an international netball series hosted by Netball South Africa. The series traditionally features South Africa playing a series of test matches against mostly visiting African national teams.[1][2] South Africa won the inaugural 2012 series.[3][4]

History

COSANA Games

The Diamond Challenge series effectively replaced the COSANA Games, a series of tournaments hosted by the Confederation of Southern African Netball Associations which were held biannually up until 2009.[1][5]

President's XII

As well as entering their senior national team in the Diamond Challenge series, Netball South Africa has also entered an invitational team known as the President's XII. It is effectively a South Africa B team. In 2016, with a team featuring Ine-Marí Venter and Marlize de Bruin, they finished second in the group stage. However, as an unranked team they are not allowed to play in the final of an official tournament.[6][7] This happened again in 2022 and they were eventually placed third.[8] In 2018, with a team coached by Jenny van Dyk and featuring Lefébre Rademan and a returning Marlize de Bruin, they effectively finished second overall.[9][10][11]
