After a frustrating couple of weeks, things are slowly returning to normality for Mainland Tactix.
The move to the COVID-19 orange traffic light setting means, on Saturday, they'll host the first indoor sporting event in front of crowds, but the challenges are far from over for New Zealand's domestic netball franchises.
"It will really help the teams financially," said Netball NZ chief executive Jennie Wyllie. "It will make a massive difference.
"[Franchises] will be able to support their partners in the way that was intended for the season."
Saturday's match against Northern Stars will be the Tactix's first in almost three weeks, with seven players testing positive after their last game against the Magic.
For several affected players, more time on the sidelines means less time to impress Silver Ferns selectors before the Commonwealth Games.
"I think my symptoms pushed me back a little bit," said Tactix star Kimiora Poi. "I wouldn't be able to get through the two 90 minutes before we play this weekend.
"It just reminds us that every opportunity you do get, you need to put it all out there, because you don't know when your next one is going to come," added defender Karin Burger.
