There are a few rules in Netball, you must follow them or you get blown up.

  • The ball must be held no longer than 3 seconds
  • The foot you land on cannot be regrounded until you release the ball. (It may, however, be moved)
  • GS and GK are only allowed in the shooting third
  • GA and GD are allowed in both the shooting third and the center third
  • C is allowed everywhere except from the D (the goal circles)
  • WA and WD are allowed in the centre third the shooting third, but not the D
  • Shooters (GS and GA) can only shoot when inside the D
  • Strictly NO contact
  • You can't repossess the ball (ie, no dribbling, no tossing from hand to hand etc)
  • The centre pass has to be received in the centre third
  • No gloves or jewellery
  • No player can make contact with an offside area, whether in possession of the ball or not. (The ball is considered part of the body when held by a player)
  • When secondary marking (when the opponent has the ball, blocking their sight and ability to throw the ball) your closest foot must be 90cm (3 feet) away from their landed foot

They are the basic rules, but as you get more advanced there are more rules.
