The Queensland Firebirds can now confirm that we will be hosting the Sunshine Coast Lightning at Nissan Arena this Monday 19 July at 7PM as a part of the Round 11 fixture.
Hosting the Battle of the Bruce on Queensland soil is an ideal outcome for our athletes and fans alike, providing both teams the opportunity to play in front of a home crowd.
With the evolving COVID-19 situation across Australia, including the South Australian government extending its restrictions on the Queensland border late yesterday, we will continue to work with the league on securing fixtures for the remaining rounds.
The league will continue to work with South Australian government to allow the Firebirds and Lightning to enter South Australia under strict protocols for future matches.
We appreciate everyone’s patience and understanding as we work together to deliver this match on short notice.
We also wish to thank our partners and fans for their ongoing support and acknowledge fellow Suncorp Super Netball clubs and the league for their dedication and commitment to ensuring that the season can proceed in such challenging circumstances.
Fans will be able to purchase tickets to this match via Ticketek https://premier.ticketek.com.au/shows/show.aspx?sh=FIREBIRD21 from 3PM today.
Club members will receive a presale which will be communicated via direct email.
