Netball can generate as much expenditure as you can drum up, but it isnt going to bring 320 000 tourists to the state let alone the country.
Probably true, but you might be surprised by the global level of participation.
For example, I do not know much about netball, but I do know from an associate that in Christchurch NZ on one occasion the Golden Oldies Rugby Tournament (> 40s), brought 150K people into the town for just a one week event.
I suspect on a global scale Netball is bigger than Golden Oldies Rugby.
