The 7 positions of Netball are;

GS- Who's main aim is to stay in the 'd' and shout the goals

GK- who's main aim is to stop the other team from getting to goals by using there arms.

GD- Is responsible for helping in the middle third and and defending the opposite team. They are also like another GK in a way but for more distance the GD must be very fit and ready to RUN.

GA- The GA is the shouter and is also a very important attacker. The GA normally stays in with the GS but can go up to the middle third if necessary.

WA- The WA is the attacker. WA is the person who gets the ball from the middle third strait into GA or GS.

WD- The WD is a defender and is there to help GD, GK and C if necessary.

C- the C is the person who runs the most the c can go anywhere but the 'd's which is the to places were the GS,GA can shout. The C Helps all the payers out and has to be on the move all the time. C has to be very very very FIT. And be ready to RUN RUN RUN.

There are 7 positions in a netball game on each team. They are;

  • Centre(C)
  • Wing Attack(WA)
  • Wing Defence(WD)
  • Goal Attack(GA)
  • Goal Defence(GD)
  • Goal Shooter(GS)
  • Goal Keeper(GK)

The centre person starts in the small circle in the middle of the court. Centre is allowed every where apart from the 2 shooting semi- circles at either end of the court.

Wing Attack is allowed in the 'attacking' (or their shooting end) 2/3rds of the court, but not in either semi-circle. If you are shooting towards the right, then they are allowed in the centre 3rd and the attacking 3rd to the right, but not in the semi-circles.

Exactly the same applies for Wing Defence, except that they are only allowed in the defending 2/3rds end - and of course not in the semi-circles.

Goal attack is a shooter and is also allowed in the attacking 2/3rds of the court - the difference being that they are allowed in the attacking semi-circle to shoot.

Goal defence is as in the Goal attack, but they defend the defending two-thirds and are allowed into the semi-circle to defend against the opposing shooter.

Goal shooter is allowed into the attacking third only and they are allowed into the attacking semi-circle in order to score the goals. The Goal Keeper is allowed into the defending third only, and they are also allowed into the semi-cirlce to defend against the shooter.
