    The criteria behind Netball New Zealand's revised eligibility rules for the Silver Ferns remain a mystery to the country's top players

    The criteria behind Netball New Zealand's revised eligibility rules for the Silver Ferns remain a mystery to the country's top players


    The national body confirmed on Monday that players wishing to play offshore and still be eligible would be able to go through a new formal exemption process.

    After outgoing New Zealand captain Ameliaranne Ekenasio told Newstalk ZB that she wasn't yet aware of the specific criteria - Ferns defender Karin Burger's has confirmed that's also something she's in the dark about.

    Burger says they've so far been told the exemption process - and the questions they'll be asked to make sure they understand all their obligations.
