No it is in the commonwealth games though.

Netball isn't currently part of the Olympic games but there is a growing campaign to get it included in the coming 2012 Olympics to be held in London.

No.

The International Olympic Committee added netball to it's list of sports that can be added to the competition in the 1990s. Through the 2008 Games, netball has never been competed in the Olympics.

Netball has been a Commonwealth Games sport since 1998.
