The Netball Super League will once again be shown on Sky Sports across 2026, with the Netball Super Cup, NSL Play-Offs and Grand Final also broadcast live exclusively.
The league is entering its second year of its journey to professionalisation, building on the success of a 2025 relaunch that delivered record growth in viewing figures.
Ahead of the new season, the Super Cup will return to Sheffield’s Utilita Arena on Saturday February 21, marking the first competitive action of the year for all eight clubs and you can watch that match live on Sky Sports Mix from 11.30am.
The Netball Super League regular season then begins on February 27. Throughout this season, Sky Sports will show 75 per cent of the games live on Sky Sports as well as on Sky Sports YouTube.
Helen Falkus, Director of Multi Sports at Sky Sports said: “Netball viewing on Sky Sports doubled last season and we’ll be looking to carry that momentum into 2026.
“Seventy-five per cent of matches will again be available live across Sky Sports TV and YouTube channels meaning every fan will continue to have fantastic access.
“As the UK’s leading investor in women’s sports rights, we’re proud to help grow the game and reach new audiences.”
Speaking about the announcement, NSL Managing Director Claire Nelson said: “Following last year’s landmark broadcast deals, I’m delighted that the Netball Super League will once again make every match available live, giving our fans unrivalled access to the league.
“Ensuring women’s sport is accessible to audiences everywhere is crucial to the continued growth of the game, and our broadcast partners, Sky Sports and BBC Sport, play a vital role in that journey.
“Their ongoing support ensures our athletes, our clubs and our competition receive the visibility they deserve. Alongside this, the introduction of new venues and doubleheader matchdays marks another exciting step forward, creating more opportunities for fans to get behind their clubs and engage with the Netball Super League live.”
