Hello 1/1 :D Your favourite blogger is back! HAHAHA kidding kidding. Okay I'm here to upload the netball rules + picture since Sarah didn't have the picture so you all can understand netball better. It's all really easy! So don't worry about it, I'm telling you its x1000000000 easier than dance. Woo, the mass dance seems to be pretty good so I hope 1/1 will win everything this time, GO ONEONE GO! :D
NETBALLERS PLEASE TAKE NOTE OF THE FOLLOWING:
FootworkLand on either one foot or both feet
If you land on one foot, you cannot move that foot, but you can pivot using the other foot
If you land on both feet, you can choose which foot you want as your landing foot
If a stepping is made, the opponent gets a free pass
Free passThe opponent gets to throw the ball from where the foul was committed
Takes place when there is stepping, replay, off side and more I think but I can’t remember haha just do it if the umpire says free pass lah :)
PenaltyThe opponent gets to throw the ball from where the foul is committed
Takes place when there is contact by a player on an opponent
The player who contacted her opponent has to stand beside the thrower
Once the ball is released, the played who made contact can resume defending etc.
Penalty pass or shotThe opponent gets to either pass the ball to another player or shoot
Takes place when there is contact within the goal circle
The opponent contacted (must be shooter) can choose to either throw out of the goal circle or shoot from where she is
DON’T BE STUPID AND WASTE IT, SHOOT :D
The player who contacted the opponent has to stand by the opponent’s side until she has released the ball
ReplayReplay is when the player bounces the ball or throws it up and catches it again
Can take place anywhere
Usually if it is not in the goal circle, it happens when the player is unable to catch the ball properly and bounces it or drops it before catching it again
When the shooter in the goal circle shoots and the ball does not touch the rim and the same shooter catches it again, that is considered as replay as well
When replay is committed, the opponent gets a free pass
Off sideOffside is when the player steps out of her designated area or steps out of court
The opponent gets a free pass
ShootingOnly the GS and GA can shoot (DUH!)
The GS and GA can shoot from anywhere within the goal circle
If the ball hits the rim, the shooters can get the rebound and try again
If the ball does not, the same shooter cannot catch it again
Held ballHeld ball is when the player holds the ball for more 3 seconds or more
A free pass is given to the opponent
Throw inA throw in takes place when the ball goes out of court
The opponent of whoever last touched the ball throws the ball in from outside the court, standing at where the ball went out of court
The thrower must toe the line and cannot step on the line
ContactContact is when a player uhhhh pushes, shoves, snatches the ball, obstructs the opponent etc.
Obstruction is a form of contact
This is when the player does not stand 3 feet away from the opponent before stretching out her hands to defend her
A penalty pass is given if it takes place outside the goal circle
A penalty pass or shot is given if it takes places inside the goal circle
BreakingBreaking is when the players (WA, WD, GA or GD) steps over the transfer line before the whistle is blown for centre pass
A free pass is given to the opponent
K I hope the rules I typed out helped the ppl playing netball, please know them by tomorrow because I think the team is pretty damn awesome so as long as we work hard we can win again, yeh? :D
