The 2021 England Jamaica netball series also known as the Vitality Roses Reunited Series was a three-match series, contested between England and Jamaica from 28 November to 5 December 2021. England won the series after winning the first two matches, and Jamaica won the final match.
England and Jamaica last played each other during the 2020 Netball Nations Cup; Jamaica won that match.[1] Jamaica had planned to tour England in January 2021, though that series was postponed due to travel restrictions relating to the COVID-19 pandemic.[2] [3] It was the first time since the 2020 Netball Nations Cup that England played a match at home with spectators.[2]
Prior to the series, England played a warm up match against an England A team, and Jamaica played two warm up fixtures against England A.[4] The first match of the Vitality Roses Reunited Series was held at the Copper Box Arena in London, and the remaining two fixtures were at the Motorpoint Arena Nottingham.[2]
