    It has been 1,092 days since the last Quad Series was contested between England, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa - four of the best sides in the world.

    Inevitably, talk surrounding the four-team competition has been overshadowed with speculation about Commonwealth Games preparation.

    England's Roses have never won a Quad Series, although this one feels less about winning and more about finding their best starting seven and building some momentum.

    Netball is a seven-a-side game where the aim is to score goals by passing the ball down the court and throwing it in your opponent's net. Unlike basketball, players are not allowed to move/run/dribble with the ball. It is all about the passing.
