The decision to extend the Collective Players Agreement means the Diamonds squad can be announced, concluding a stand-off between Netball Australia and the Australian Netball Players Association.
The two bodies had been locked in negotiations over the signing of a Collective Player Agreement for the Netball World Cup in South Africa next month.
The players selected for the Diamonds' World Cup campaign will now be notified they have been picked after Netball Australia extended the CPA.

He said Liberal Senator Claire Chandler criticised Tennis Australia CEO Craig Tiley for “trying to prevent the world bodies from protecting women’s competitions”. “As the Senator points out, all this deference to diversity and inclusion, if it pits biological males against girls and women, well then it doesn’t allow for the simple right, the very important inclusion, of women in sport,” Mr Kenny said.
