An extremely clear answer would be - the umpire would blow the whistle and the players should pause the game. After that, the umpire would shout "Contact!" and would state the action a player had used on another. She then would gesture towards the player which had been contacted and the player who had contacted the other. Telling the player that had contacted another to stand beside one of the players of the other team to take the ball. And if the contact was done outside the semi-circle, they would get a free pass but if it is in the semi-circle either shooter would take the ball and get a penalty of either a pass or a shot
To know the rules, such as Stepping, Obstruction and other things like that. You would be best of typing into youtube 'How to Umpire a Netball Game' I did and it came up with a few great videos showing how to actually do it showing step by step. If I could I would get the video but I am unable to do so. Sorry (:
they would normally wear white clothing with sunglasses if they are umpireing out side.The best way to tell if someone is an umpire is by seeing if they are wearing a club shirt or not.
i know that in New Zealand, you need to complete an average of 2 years of qualification games (one game each week during the season) and over that period of time you would of hopefully of passed your bronze silver and gold award. in the third season you would start to work on your level 1,2,3 etc...
the minimum a netball umpire would get paid is $8
if offside happens, they give the ball to the opposite team
Usually a toss up would be done or play could continue normal if neither player affected the game. Just depends on the umpire, they might even see only one player go offside and award a free pass to the opposing team.
If there was no ball it would not be called netball it would be called net
Netball is not a word in french because it is not played in France. If someone were to refer to netball they would just call it "netball".
I play netball and i dnt think there is even a "fast netball". But if there is i guess it would all be the same but, faster:\
When the netball player wants to
not really .. sometimes it can become tricky with higher graded netball because they are tricky with their footwork and moves and you will need to pick them up for more moves. but younger kids would be a great start :) you should try it out!
Yes weather does effect the bounce of a netball. because if it was windy. the netball would move.
