The 2022 Taini Jamison Trophy Series, also known as the 2022 Cadbury Netball Series, was the 12th Taini Jamison Trophy series. It featured New Zealand playing Jamaica in two netball test matches, played in September 2022. Both tests were played in Auckland.[2] New Zealand won the opening test 70–45.[3][4] They then defeated Jamaica 75–35 in the second test to win the series 2–0.[5][6] The New Zealand team were coached by Noeline Taurua and captained by Ameliaranne Ekenasio.[7][8][9] Jamaica were coached by Connie Francis and captained by Shimona Nelson.[1][10][11][12] The series was originally due to start earlier and feature matches played at Hamilton's Globox Arena. However complications with passports and visas saw the Jamaica team's arrival in New Zealand delayed. This also resulted in Jamaica playing a severely under strength team.[13][14][15] Following an investigation, World Netball would later fine Netball Jamaica GBP £5,000 (NZD $9,800) for failing to fulfil the original fixtures planned for the series.[16]
