Super Netball’s contract renewal deadline looms as 88 players sit off-contract amid stalled negotiations for the next Collective Player Agreement. With the Commonwealth Games in full swing, players are under pressure — and agents are furious the signing window was delayed, crippling their ability to secure deals. This echoes last year’s pay dispute, and tensions are rising as players didn’t request the delay, sparking fears of internal division. The current 12-month CPA, introduced to boost revenue, is seen as a short-term fix that could repeat next year. The contracting window also favors loyalty over opportunity, misaligned with global schedules. Key sticking points include a proposed 25% pay bump for minimum wage players — which may actually shrink take-home pay after inflation and super increases — and a stubborn cap on sponsorships, which agents say stifles visibility and growth for the sport. Without major concessions, netball risks falling further behind in the women’s sports race.
