A refreshed sense of direction for the Silver Ferns amid Dame Noeline Taurua's return as head coach.

Netball New Zealand's announced Taurua will resume her duties after the team's northern tour, with some revised operations.

The sport's national body say they've agreed to changes that support wellbeing and performance, including strengthening the player voice.

NZ Herald sports reporter Nathan Limm has labelled this situation a 'mess' - and wondered what took Netball NZ so long.

"They had to bow to public pressure...it's been six weeks since she was stood down, 10 days out from the Taini Jamison series. I felt like it got to the point where if they wanted her back, she'd be back."
