Players offered 11 per cent pay rise amid ongoing disputeFormer Diamonds captain Liz Ellis said the offer was “offensive”
Netball players have rejected Netball Australia’s latest pay offer with former great Liz Ellis fearing the relationship between the warring parties may not be salvageable. The sport’s governing body and the Australian Netball Players’ Association (ANPA) are set to meet on Friday in Melbourne to try to hammer out an end to the bitter saga which has left players unpaid for the past two months.
NA had hoped to reach a deal on Wednesday with a new offer that included an 11 per cent pay rise back-dated to 1 October, the day after the last collective player agreement (CPA) ended, while the groups continue to work on the details of the agreement.
