Welcome to a brand new episode of Qtr Time, the UK's ultimate netball podcast covering all things netball in the UK and beyond!


This is part two of our Quad Series Mini Series, reviewing the tournament in Cape Town between Australia, New Zealand, England, and South Africa. We share our three word summaries of all 8 games, take a detailed look at the Bronze medal match and the Final, and name our Players of the Series from each nation.

Then we hear from SPAR Proteas head coach Norma Plummer about being back at the helm of South Africa after the dismissal of Dorette Badenhorst, her reflections on the Quad Series as whole and building toward the Netball World Cup in July.
 

As we did with the Quad Series mini-series last year, we really enjoyed being able to share conversations with all four head coaches, however unfortunately we haven’t been able to secure some time with Jess Thirlby yet, so we cover a few of the key England talking points ourselves at the end of the episode.  We will endeavor to bring you a chat with Jess if possible and release it as Part 3 of the mini-series - keep an eye out on our socials to hear the latest.

Welcome to a brand new episode of Qtr Time, the UK's ultimate netball podcast covering all things netball in the UK and beyond!


This is part one of our Quad Series Mini Series, previewing the upcoming competition in Cape Town between Australia, New Zealand, England, and South Africa. We recap how all the teams are lining up including any major ins and outs in terms of selection, and reveal our players and matchups to watch out for. 
 

Next, we hear from  Silver Ferns head coach Dame Noeline Taurua. We pick her brains about CWG, Constellation Cup, welcoming back experienced players, and how she reflects on her tenure so far, particularly given the news that her contract as head coach will be up for renewal in November. Finally, we take a deep dive with Australian Diamonds head coach Stacey Marinkovich. Our conversation covers success, expectations, squad selections, the Hancock Prospecting sponsorship saga, who she’s expecting to face if they make the final, and much more.


Buckle up, folks! This is a big one.

Welcome to a brand new episode of Qtr Time, the UK's ultimate superfan netball podcast covering all things netball in the UK and beyond!


This is the fifth episode of our Commonwealth Games 2022 netball coverage, and in today’s show we are recapping the key talking points from the tournament including: which teams impressed in the pool stages, who stood up for their team, potential changes to the competition format and the Bronze and Gold medal matches. To help us reflect on the Games we're joined by the amazing netball commentator Lindsey Chapman, host of the Thundercast and England Netball Courtside podcasts. 


A big thank you to everyone involved in the Games; to the players and coaches for your generosity in interviews after tough games, to the event staff and volunteers for working tirelessly to help the event run smoothly, to our umpires for keeping us all in check, and then finally to the Commonwealth Games Federation for putting on such a spectacle. These past 10 days have been truly unforgettable.
