in netball a wd, is a wing defence, their job is to defend the wing attack and stop them from getting the ball. sometimes the wing attack will have to help with center passes and penalties
The WD in netball can only go in the centre 3rd and goal thrid but cannot go in the goal circle.
There are 7 players on a netball team; C, WA, GA, GS, WD, GD, GK Hope that helps:)
WD or Wing Defence is allowed in the first 2 thirds of the court, the third they are in and the middle third. They are not allowed in the goal circle.
generally in normal netball there are 7 on a team, not including any reserves. They are GS, GK, WA, WD, GA, GD and C. There are 14 people playing at once - 7 per team. If you play primary school 'Hi-5' netball then there is only 5 per team, not including reserves - they are the same positions as normal netball but without WA and WD
There is 7 ,GA GS WA GD GK WD and C
WD Is very important in a game of netball because they work great when it the other teams turn for centre pass.WD and WA are the only ones who cant go in the goal circle apart from centre and because of this they come in handy to get in a better position for shooting
