Best Answer

Marking is used in Netball to prevent the opposing team from gaining possession of the ball by closely monitoring each player. For example, goal defence (GD) would mark goal attack (GA) to try and prevent the opposition from moving up the court towards their hoop and potentially scoring.

There are different rules such as you could hold your hand in front of them and follow them around the pitch. Of corse it changes with different coaches!
