The 2012 Netball Quad Series was the inaugural Netball Quad Series series. It was co-hosted by Netball Australia and Netball New Zealand. It featured Australia, England, New Zealand and South Africa playing each other in a series of twelve netball test matches in October and November 2012. The series featured six double headers with three played in Australia and three played in New Zealand. The three in Australia were also known as the Holden International Quad-Series, while the three in New Zealand were also known as the New World Quad Series.[1][2][3][4] [5][6] With a team coached by Lisa Alexander and captained by Natalie von Bertouch, Australia won the inaugural series.[5][7][8] It would be 2016, before the next Netball Quad Series was organised.[9] The series was broadcast live on Fox Sports in Australia, on Sky Sport in New Zealand and on SuperSport (South Africa).[10][11][12][13]
