2019 Netball New Zealand Super Club

The 2019 Netball New Zealand Super Club was the third edition of the invitational club-based netball tournament organised by Netball New Zealand.^[1] With a team coached by Rob Wright, captained by Geva Mentor and featuring Natalie Medhurst, Ashleigh Brazill and Shimona Nelson, Collingwood Magpies finished the 2019 tournament as winners after defeating Northern Mystics 49–42 in the final.^{[2][3][4][5][6][7][8]} The staging of the 2019 tournament was delayed because of the 2019 Netball World Cup. This effectively made it a pre-season tournament for the teams involved.^[9] All the matches were hosted at the Trafalgar Centre in Nelson between 8 December and 13 December 2019 and were broadcast live on Sky Sport (New Zealand).^[1][10][11]
