World Netball will reportedly investigate the debacle surrounding Jamaica's visit to New Zealand to face the Silver Ferns.
The three-test Taini Jamison Trophy series was firstly rescheduled, then relocated and finally reduced to two games, after players were delayed receiving visas to travel through the US.
Half the squad couldn't make it to New Zealand in time for Wednesday's opening test at Auckland, forcing the 'Sunshine Girls' to send an SOS to Australia-based veteran Carla Borrego and another former international to join the team from across the Tasman.
With 10 players required to constitute an official test, Romelda Aiken George will also join the team, just five weeks after the birth of baby Gianna, while Jamaica coach Connie Francis will complete the roster, nearly 20 years after her last appearance for the national team.
World Netball chief executive Claire Briegal says the most critical matter was ensuring the matches - in any capacity - could go ahead, but confirmed a "full investigation" into the ordeal will take place.
"Failure to fulfil a fixture is a serious matter, because of the impact on all the stakeholders, and this is covered in our general regulation," Briegal told Stuff.
"The starting point is a full investigation, but now is not the time to be talking about that - our first priority is to see these matches go ahead.
"We will investigate the circumstances with all the relevant parties - we don’t know all the facts yet."
The original schedule included games at Hamilton on Saturday and Sunday. Those were delayed and relocated to Auckland for two games on Wednesday and Thursday, with the third test scrapped altogether.
"We're so sad this has happened - for both teams, all the participants of the events, the volunteers and match officials and technical officials, and especially for the fans," Briegal told Stuff.
"We all recognise the huge impact this has on all involved, including the broadcasters and sponsors and partners."
Netball NZ chief executive Jennie Wyllie says she has been in constant communication with her Jamaican counterparts and while the situation was "not ideal", she is pleased they've managed to prevent any further cancellations.
"We're really excited they've got some players on the bench for them," Wyllie told Newshub. "We felt that was really important from a player welfare perspective.
"We can only control what we can control and that's what we've been doing."
