Netball will make a triumphant return to Liverpool in May next year when M&S Bank Arena teams up with Manchester Thunder.

M&S Bank Arena will host the highly anticipated Netball Super League (NSL) match, reaffirming the city’s status as a destination for top-tier sporting events.

The event will see some of the UK’s finest netball talent compete against each other in front of passionate netball fans. Fixtures, announced today, reveal Manchester Thunder will meet Birmingham Panthers in Liverpool. 

The return to the city is particularly exciting for local supporters, as it was the host city for the unforgettable 2019 Vitality Netball World Cup, where fans packed the stands to create an electric atmosphere.

M&S Bank Arena, one of the UK’s leading sports and entertainment venues, is thrilled to welcome Manchester Thunder for what promises to be an exhilarating match. The venue’s state-of-the-art facilities and commitment to creating memorable fan experiences ensure it will be a spectacular showcase for netball fans across the Liverpool city region.

Ben Williams, Commercial & Business Development Manager for M&S Bank Arena, said:

“We are delighted to be welcoming netball back to the city. Liverpool has a rich sporting history, and local fans always create a special atmosphere. We are proud to host this prestigious event and can’t wait to see the arena buzzing with excitement as the players take to the court.”

Karen Greig, Head Coach and Franchise Director for Manchester Thunder, said:

“We are delighted to be bringing a game to Liverpool and the M&S Bank Arena. We recognise as a North West based franchise that we have a responsibility to develop both local and elite netball across our region.

“It’s important for us to engage with netballers in the whole of the North West to get more people watching netball and coming to Liverpool is an exciting move for us. We will be working closely with Liverpool and its surrounding areas to engage not only young aspiring netballers but reaching out to netballers across the city. We are excited to see this new partnership drive forward and help develop partnerships and netball.”

Manchester Thunder, four-time Netball Super League champions, are playing in Liverpool for the first time in their history. The sport’s return to Liverpool in 2025 comes at a time when netball continues to grow in popularity across the UK, inspiring a new generation of players and fans alike.

With a strong history of hosting international sporting events, Liverpool is ready to bring netball to new heights and once again show why it’s the premiere destination for top-tier sporting events.
