They then made their biggest win by thrashing Pakistan in a 91–13 victory, but only to suffer 76–18 and 72–11 defeats, by Singapore and Malaysia respectively.
  
  At the 2015 Southeast Asian Games, the national team of Brunei secured a bronze medal for being one of the two semifinalists. Brunei repeated this feat again at the 2017 Southeast Asian Games for finishing as one of the semifinalists. In the 2017 edition of the Games, Brunei was guided by Sri Lankan coach, Thilaka Jinadasa. Before the regional stint, they went to Kota Kinabalu and played a series of matches against the Sri Lanka School Team in April 2017 and played exposure matches against Singaporean netball teams in Singapore in May 2017 as preparation.
  
  Alongside Singapore and Pakistan, Brunei has been pooled into Group 'C' of the 2018 Asian Netball Championships in which they finished sixth in the tournament. Brunei took part in the 2019 Southeast Asian Games which was held in Laguna, Philippines. They returned from the tournament with bronze medals with Prince Sufri Bolkiah as the awardee. The Royal Bees participated in the 2022 Asian Netball Championships which was held in Singapore.
