The 2003 World Netball Championships were the eleventh edition of the INF Netball World Cup, a quadrennial premier event in international netball. It was held in Kingston, Jamaica from 10 to 20 July. After 100 matches, New Zealand's Silver Ferns defeated Australia to take the title after its last title 16 years previously. The host country, Jamaica, finished third.

This marked the tournament's 40th anniversary, as it was founded in 1963.

The competition started with two days of two rounds of knockout games between the 16 unseeded nations for four spots in the championship stage of the competition. The losing 12 teams were placed in the consolation round.
