The 2014 AFNA Championships was a tournament organised by the Americas Federation of Netball Associations. It featured seven teams playing a series of netball test matches in August 2014 at Calgary's SAIT Polytechnic. The tournament also served as an Americas qualifier for the 2015 Netball World Cup. The hosts, Canada, were joined by six other national netball teams. Trinidad and Tobago and Barbados eventually finished as winners and runners up. They subsequently joined Jamaica at the World Cup. Jamaica qualified for the World Cup via the INF World Rankings and did not take part in this series.[1][2][3][4][5][6]
