TV Guide: 2023 Suncorp Super Netball season kicks off on Fox Sports and Kayo

Super Netball returns for its seventh season this year, with eight teams to battle to be named Australia's best, starting Saturday, March 18, on Foxtel and Kayo Sports from 5:00pm.

The Magpies and Swifts will open the season, followed by a grand final rematch between the Vixens and reigning premiers, the Fever.

This year's finals series will begin on Saturday, June 24, and wrap up with the grand final on Saturday, July 8.

Each week, two regular season games will also be available to stream for free on Kayo Freebies.

Earlier this year, Fox Netball celebrated the new season at an event that included Hannah Hollis, Cath Cox, Bianca Chatfield, and commentator Sue Gaudion. They joined the captains of all eight Suncorp Super Netball (SSN) teams to shoot season 2023 to new heights as part of a joint season launch event with Netball Australia on the forecourt of Victoria’s State Library.

At the event, it was announced that experienced commentator Gaudion will reunite with Cath Cox in commentary this year, with every game set to be hosted live from the game venue.

In addition to Gaudion, England international and SSN legend Stacey Francis Bayman and former Adelaide Thunderbirds player Emily Beaton will join the Fox Netball commentary team.

Fox Sports commercial director, Rebecca McCloy, said: “Fox Netball took coverage of Suncorp Super Netball to new heights in 2022, culminating in a record breaking Grand Final show down which saw the West Coast Fever claim their first premiership.

“We are excited to take fans even closer to the action in the second year of this groundbreaking partnership with unprecedented game day access, world class commentary and compelling storytelling from the biggest names in the sport.”

A new documentary series, Off the Court, will air throughout the SSN season with eight episodes focusing on a marquee player from each of the eight teams, giving fans an intimate look into their lives and careers on and off the court.
