Nounnetball
Derived termsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Netball is a ball sport played between two teams of seven players. The sport shares many similarities with basketball, having been derived from early versions of women's basketball. It developed as a distinct sport in the 1890s in England, from where it spread to other countries. Netball is popular in Commonwealth nations and is predominantly played by women. Games are played on a rectangular court divided into thirds, with a raised goal at each short end. The object of the game is for teams to score goals, by passing a ball and shooting it into the opposing team's goal. Players are assigned "positions" that define their role within the team and restrict their movement on court. During general play, a player with the ball can take no more than one step before passing it, and cannot hold the ball for longer than three seconds. Goals can only be scored by the assigned shooting players. Netball games are 60 minutes long, divided into 15-minute quarters, at the end of which the team with the most goals scored wins. The sport is administered globally by the International Federation of Netball Associations (IFNA), and is reportedly played by over 20 million people in more than 70 countries. Local-level participation is widespread in Commonwealth nations, particularly in schools, although international competition and domestic leagues only receive substantial recognition in a few countries. The highest level of international netball includes the Netball World Championships, the netball event at the Commonwealth Games, and the World Netball Series. From Wikipedia under the

I have my netball tryouts in around 2 weeks and want to know how to make it. Most of the players are really good, so I'll be lucky to even make it as a sub for the B team. I tried out last year but I didn't make it. I really want to make it this year. Please help! Asked by Simran - Tue Sep 8 11:26:52 2009 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. well since its in two weeks you have some time to really get your skill up by doing simple things like right handed and left handed passes against the wall, jumps, bounce passes etc. also a key part of netball is fitness so just ensure you are fit by going for a few runs before the tryouts. at the try outs you need to be seen, so even if that may be going for an intercept, not making it and contacting, the selectors will still notice you and this will improve your chance. make sure all your passes are accurate and basically don't give the selectors any chance to let you slip by. goodluck!
