Netball is an energetic game requiring high speed changes in direction and good ball handling skills. It is played mainly by women, among whom it is the most popular sport in Australia, but it is also played recreationally by men. Competitive players require high levels of agility, endurance, and speed, and moderate levels of strength and flexibility. Training often includes running and agility practice (e.g. doing shuttle sprints, dodging around a series of cones). The quick changes of direction, and landing from jumps, impose considerable strain on the feet and legs. Players should wear shoes specially designed to meet these demands. In particular, the shoe should provide good cushioning of the ball of the foot.

all your muscle will be used since these games requires much movement and of course including your brain muscle.

What muscles are used to rebound a netball?

Rebounding a netball primarily engages the muscles of the legs, including the quadriceps, hamstrings, and calves, for explosive jumping. The core muscles, including the abdominals and obliques, provide stability and balance during the jump and landing. Additionally, the shoulders and upper back muscles, such as the deltoids and trapezius, assist in reaching for the ball and maintaining proper body positioning. Overall, a combination of lower body, core, and upper body muscles is utilized for an effective rebound.
