England v Jamaica: Hurricane Melissa impact on Horizon Series

England Netball will donate £1 from every Horizon Series ticket sold to Netball Jamaica’s chosen charity, World Central Kitchen, and has also announced that fans can contribute to the British Red Cross Disaster Fund.

The fixture may be played in challenging conditions but England captain Francesca Williams said her team’s approach has not changed.

“We’re definitely not holding back,” Williams told BBC Sport.

“You will always put in the best possible performance and do whatever you can to help the team win. That means showing the most respect to the other team, playing to the best of your ability.”

Williams said that while these matches represent “more than just the scoreline”, the Jamaican side will be “just as tough” as they are under different circumstances.

But for them, it’s also a chance to bring joy to people back home.

Sutherland said people in Jamaica “set their alarms and put on their black, green and gold to watch the games on television.”

He hopes TV viewers will include his grandfather if electricity is restored to the area in time.

“He gets really excited about me going on the tour and asks how he’s going to watch the match,” he said.

“It means a lot to her. She goes around and tells everyone: ‘My granddaughter is a Sunshine Girl!'”
