C\ufeffollingwood<\/a> has been slapped with a $10,000 fine for illegal netball activities despite no longer having any involvement in the sport.<\/p>\n

Super Netball announced in a statement on Thursday that Collingwood had been fined\ufeff for breaching the league's competition rules during the 2022 player-signing period.<\/p>\n

The statement said the club had been fined for "including additional services agreements as part of letters of offer to a number of players".<\/p>\n

"The Collingwood Magpies have accepted the fine," the statement added.<\/p>\n

The Magpies have paid a price for illegal netball conduct despite the fact they withdrew their Super Netball licence at the end of the 2023 season, which was brought to a close by the grand final on July 8.<\/p>\n

"Collingwood is a better place for having had a netball team," said Collingwood chief executive Craig Kelly in a statement in May.<\/p>\n

"The decision to not renew our netball licence has been an incredibly difficult one which has weighed heavily on us."<\/p>\n

\"Collingwood's<\/p>\n

Following Collingwood's announcement in May that it would not renew its licence, Super Netball chief executive Kelly Ryan made a damning assessment of the club's commitment to the sport.<\/p>\n

"In recent times it had become clear that Collingwood's priorities had shifted away from netball to focus on its core business of football," Ryan said.<\/p>\n

"We are understanding of the impact Collingwood's decision has on its current players and staff and we will support them during this time."<\/p>\n

It was revealed on Tuesday that Collingwood's replacement in Super Netball would be called the Melbourne Mavericks.<\/p>\n

From the moment Collingwood announced it would be fleeing Super Netball, the league made it clear that another club would join the competition to ensure it remained an eight-team tournament.\ufeff<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
