Malawi national netball team developments

Overview

The Malawi Queens netball team completed the 2026 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow with a seventh-place finish, meeting their performance target after winning three of their six matches. Following their return to Lilongwe, the Netball Association of Malawi (NAM) shifted focus toward long-term development and upcoming international competitions.

NAM implemented a national talent selection program that identified 40 players for a High-Performance Development Programme following an intensive assessment of hundreds of participants. Concurrently, the national team began preparations for the African Netball Cup in Kenya, a tournament serving as a critical pathway for qualification for the 2027 Netball World Cup in Australia.
