Why Australian netball players aren’t getting paid

Professional Australian netball players haven’t been payed since September due to an ongoing pay dispute. On the weekend, players collectively boycotted Netball Australia’s Awards ceremony, but Australia’s national squad the Diamonds did attend due to legal obligations. In today’s deep dive, we speak to Diamond and Lightning player Cara Koenen about what the team is calling for, and how this time without pay is impacting Australia’s elite netball players.
