Thunder, Bath and Lightning Qualify For Fast5 All-Stars

Manchester Thunder, Loughborough Lightning and Team Bath have all sealed their place at the 2019 British Fast5 Netball All-Stars Championship to join defending champions Wasps Netball at the Copper Box Arena, London on Saturday, October 12.

Four more teams will join the quartet in the £100,000 tournament, which returns for its third year in the autumn and will feature the top eight teams from the 2019 Vitality Superleague.
