The 2023 Taini Jamison Trophy Series, also known as the 2023 Cadbury Netball Series, was the 13th Taini Jamison Trophy series. It featured New Zealand playing England in three netball test matches, played in September 2023. The New Zealand team were coached by Noeline Taurua and captained by Ameliaranne Ekenasio. England were coached by Liana Leota and co-captained by Sophie Drakeford-Lewis and Halimat Adio. Before the series started, England faced criticism from Netball New Zealand and Taurua for selecting an understrength "B team". However they subsequently defeated New Zealand 55–54 in the opening test. New Zealand eventually won the series 2–1. The series was broadcast live on Sky Sport in New Zealand, on Sky Sports in the United Kingdom and Ireland, on SportsMax in the Caribbean and on YouTube.
