However, Netball South Africa says the federation is a member in good standing with World Netball and Molokwane remains suspended.
The federation and all its stakeholders would be severely affected should World Netball suspend the federation and it will therefore await the resolution of this issue.
World Netball says the findings of the disciplinary investigation into Molokwane’s conduct are with an independent arbitration service and a disciplinary hearing will be convened soon.
