Yes, usually un-less the umpire is picky, you can take the penaly pass on either side of the penalised player,
The ball is given to the opposing team, the penalty is taken from the sense of the infringement
Netball is considered non contact - however it was recently rated the third highest contact sport. This is because as the player is penalised when pulled up for contacting, the contact is made more aggressive (the logic is "if you're going to do it you might as well do it properly").
NO you cannot score from a free pass but you can shoot if it was a penalty pass or shot in the goal circle. A penalty pass or shot is given if a player contacts or obstructs a person in the circle.
The penalties in netball are contact and obstruction, intimidation also comes under the category of these two penalties.
A penalty pass is different from a free pass in netball because: A free pass is awarded to the opposing team because the infringement made by the other team only affected one player (stepping, replay, breaking) BUT A penalty pass is awarded to the opposing team because the infringement made by the other team affected two or more players (contact, obstruction)
When the netball player wants to
The offending player is given an excessive time out penalty. The penalty carries 5 yards for either offense or defense.

Type your answer here... In the NFL a player is allowed to spike the ball without incurring a penalty. In the NCAA spiking the football carries a 15 yard penalty for Unsportsmanlike ( UNS )
Is penalised for a hand
The opposite team will have a penalty pass, and you then have to stand next to the player who takes it.
No, you don't have to be an experienced netball player to play for a netball team. Everyone has to start somewhere. Start & you will soon get better. best of luck
