What is WD job in netball?

Answer 1

In Netball, the WD position refers to the Wing Defence player. The primary role of the WD is to defend against the opposition's attacking players, particularly the Wing Attack and Goal Attack.

Additionally, the WD often plays a key role in transitioning the ball from defense to attack.

Basically Wing Attack marks the other teams Wing Defence and Vice verse for the Wing Defence. If you're wondering where they are allowed on the netball court, imagine you are the wing attack. You are allowed in the centre third (same applies for wing defence) and you're attacking third (the way you are shooting). If you are playing wing defence you are not allowed in the attacking third, so you are defending the other teams goal. (The wings aren't allowed in the semicircles either).
