Welcome to a brand new episode of Qtr Time, the UK's ultimate netball podcast covering all things netball in the UK and beyond!


This is Part 1 of our Netball Nations Cup 2024 coverage, where we preview the upcoming competition between Australia, New Zealand, England, and Uganda.
Firstly we take a look at each team for the upcoming series, highlighting our players to watch, giving our predictions, and discussing key talking points for each team.


Next, we hear from key players representing two of the competing nations, England Roses defender, Razia Quashie, and Silver Ferns captain for this series, Phoenix Karaka. Our conversation with Razia covers returning from injury, mental resilience, defensive combinations for England, and how her love of the game keeps her motivated. With Phoenix we discuss the highs and lows of 2023, being promoted to captain, fitness testing, where she feels the Silver Ferns are at the start of the new international cycle, and so much more.


*Apologies for a bit of airport background noise in our conversation with Phoenix, we hope you still enjoy the chat and hearing her perspective.


This Part 2 will be released following the series so stay tuned on our social channels for the announcement!
