The Fiji Netball team is in 7th place in the latest World Netball ranking.

Fiji played for the 9th and 10th play-off during the World Netball Championship where they lost to Wales but the ranking is determined by the total points scored divided by the total number of games played in July.

Fiji won the Pacific Series in July before the Championship which gave them more games and points compared to other nations like Wales who are now on 12th place.

Although losing to Australia in the Championship final, New Zealand is the number 1 rank side.
