DISCOVER NETBALL
What is netball?
Netball is a fast-paced ball sport played between two teams of seven players on court. Teams work to keep or regain possession, move the ball into the goal circle and score as many goals as possible.
Strict non-contact
Players defend without physical contact, so timing, footwork and anticipation are essential.
SMART DEFENCEDedicated court areas
Each position can move only in specific thirds of the court, giving every role a clear tactical job.
TACTICAL ROLESPrecision scoring
Only the Goal Shooter and Goal Attack can score, making shooting accuracy and smart movement crucial.
SCORING EXCITEMENTNEW TO NETBALL?
Think korfbal meets basketball
If you know korfbal or basketball, you already have a good starting point for understanding netball.
Like korfbal
Passing, movement, teamwork and specific court areas.
Like basketball
A raised goal, scoring, attack and defence.
But netball is different
No dribbling, a three-second rule, seven positions and strict movement areas.
