Starting play Play is started with a pass from the centre circle — this is called the centre pass. Held Ball Once the ball has been caught, the player must pass it or shoot for goal within three seconds. Offside Each player is allowed in only a certain area of the court. Footwork Stepping Once a player has landed with the ball, the first landed foot is called the grounded foot and must either stay on the ground or in the air until the ball is passed on.
Obstruction When a player is defending another player or trying to intercept the ball they must be at least 0. Contact A player is not allowed to physically contact an opponent if it disrupts or stops that person from playing. However, goals can only be scored by the assigned shooting players. Netball games are divided into minute quarters - 60 minutes long - at the end of which the team with the most goals scored wins.
Only the Goal Attack and Goal Shooter are able to score goals directly inside of the semicircle. The umpire's whistle signals the goal is scored. It is the job of the Goal Defence and Goal Keeper to block the Goal Attack and Goal Shooter from shooting and they must be three feet or more away from the landing foot of the shooter. Play does not stop for an advantage and is only played in that moment against that infringement.
The controlling umpire will blow their whistle for the start of play when the attacking C is in possession of the ball and with at least one foot wholly within the centre circle. At the point of the whistle being blown all players must be in their respective thirds. Any players not in the correct area will be deemed to be offside. It is up to the individual players to make sure they are correctly positioned before the whistle is blown.
A C should step straight into the circle, not wait for players to be onside. The centre pass must be caught within the centre third.
A player can jump from a goal third, catch the ball and land within the centre third. A Throw-in is set where the umpire indicates. A players landing foot must be within 6 inches of the line, but not touching. The player must obey all other rules and release the ball before making contact with the court. All other players must be on court when the throw-in is taken, and the ball must enter the court.
Only GA and GS can score a goal. They must have made no contact with the court outside the shooting circle whilst in possession of the ball, when intentionally making a shot at goal. The ball must pass through the ring from above, and must have passed through the ring before time ends for the goal to count.
If the ball passes through the ring after being deflected by a defender, then the goal will stand. A player is deemed offside if any part of their body makes contact with the ground in an area that they are not allowed to enter.
A player may lean on the ball in an offside area. A player may not re-ground their landing foot whilst in possession of the ball. The landing foot is deemed to be the first foot to make contact with the ground. If a player already has one foot in contact with the ground when catching the ball this is their landing foot.
Like a GD, a Wing Defence is allowed in the centre and defensive thirds, however they are not allowed in the shooting circle. They primarily mark the opposing Wing Attack WA. A Centre is allowed in all three thirds of the netball court except for the shooting circles at either end of the court. They primarily mark the Centre of the other team.
The Wing Attack is allowed in both the centre third and the goal third in the direction their team is shooting, however they are not allowed in the shooting circle and therefore are unable to shoot.
They primarily mark the Wing Defence of the opposing team. The Goal Attack is allowed in both the centre third and the goal third that they are shooting towards, including the shooting circle. They are one of two players on a netball team allowed to shoot and score points. Goal Shooters are only allowed in the attacking goal third , including the shooting circle. Along with the Goal Attack, they are the only other player allowed to shoot at the net to score for their team.
The objective of netball is to score more points than your opposition. This is achieved by scoring goals through the nets positioned at either end of the court. You get one point for every goal you score. According to standard netball rules, matches are split into four quarters. Each quarter lasts 15 minutes amateur matches may be shorter with a 5 minute break between the 2nd and 3rd quarter half time.
