    Jamaican netball coach has no regrets putting her name on team sheet for the opening test against NZ

    Jamaican netball coach Connie Francis has no regrets putting her name on the team sheet for the opening Taini Jamison Trophy test against New Zealand


    The Sunshine Girls endured a 70-45 defeat by the Silver Ferns on Auckland's North Shore.

    The 54-year-old was forced to put herself on the list with five players stuck at home due to visa issues, but didn't take the court.

    The former Jamaican international is expected to be listed on the reserves in tonight's second test.
