In Netball, marking refers to the defensive strategy where a player guards an opponent closely to prevent them from receiving a pass or taking a shot. The goal of marking is to disrupt the opponent's offensive plays and force turnovers. Effective marking requires good positioning, footwork, and anticipation to anticipate the opponent's moves and react quickly.

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.

Stand next to your partner, Eg; Center and Centre.

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!

Marking is when the one player blocks another player from reciving the ball from a member of their team. So eg. Wing defence marks Wing attack from getting the ball from the centre
