Mavericks to compete in FAST5 Netball All-Stars Championship
The Fast5 Netball All-Stars Championship will return to the Copper Box Arena, London on Friday, 16 June, with eight sides from the Netball Super League, including Saracens Mavericks set to compete over five exhilarating hours of evening action from 5:30pm broadcast live on Sky Sports.
Fast5 Netball All-Stars Championship is one of the most exciting formats in the game and features just five players-a-side, shortened match times, multiple point shots, unlimited roll on-roll-off substitutions, and an exciting double point power play: setting the stage for guaranteed entertainment with the golden buzzer.
The format sees teams compete in the double-elimination group stage before the semi-finals and final with Team Bath Saracens Mavericks in the 2021 final 23-17. Mavericks came into that one as defending champions and will be aiming to reclaim the title.
With the tournament set to take place a week after the conclusion of the Netball Super League, it will offer an opportunity for teams to draw their battle lines once again in an action-packed evening.
Defending champions Team Bath will lead the charge come Friday, 16 June with the likes of current Netball Super League leaders Surrey Storm, 2022 NSL champions Manchester Thunder, Leeds Rhinos, London Pulse, Severn Stars, Strathclyde Sirens, and two-time finalists the Saracens Mavericks.
Kirsty Harris was on Team Bath’s winning side in 2021: "Winning Fast5 in 2021 was a brilliant experience, especially with it being the first time Team Bath had won the competition. We’ve had to wait a while to defend our trophy but we’re looking forward to it. Fast5 is always such a fun event for players and spectators."
Broadcast live on Sky Sports in the UK and Ireland. Fans in the USA, Germany, Italy and Spain will be able to watch live on DAZN with fans in Australia able to enjoy on Foxtel.

The eight sides will battle it out for a slice of the £100,000 prize fund over five action-packed hours beginning with the first centre pass at 5:30pm with the final set to conclude at 10:30pm.
