Professional netball: rules and positions of players on the field

Netball originates from an older version of women's basketball. Netball first appeared in England at the end of the 19th century as an attempt to adapt the growing popularity of basketball to the women needs. Soon, in 1895, at Madame Osterberg's College of Physical Training in Hampstead, the first set of rules was drawn up and subsequently underwent minor changes. The game quickly gained popularity in Great Britain, Australia and New Zealand.

Since then, the popularity of the game has only grown, also thanks to regular international championships. For successful netball betting, it is important to understand the roles of each team member:

  • Shooter (GS, Goal Shooter). The playing area is the third of the attack and the area of the opponent's goal.
  • Central player (C, Centre). He can play anywhere except in the goal area.
  • Wing defender (WD, Wing Defence). The playing area is the central third and the defensive third.
  • Wing Attacker (WA, Wing Attack). The playing area is the central third and the attacking third, excluding the opponent's goal area.
  • Striker (GA, Goal Attack). The playing area is the central third and the attacking third, excluding the opponent's goal area.
  • Defender (GD, Goal Defence). The playing area is the central third and the defensive third, including the goal area.
  • Goalkeeper (GK, Goal Keeper). The playing area is the goal area and one third of the defense.

The shooter or striker must throw the ball into the ring to score points. At the same time, the ball must completely cross the line and pass through the ring. Each goal earns the team 1 point. As a rule, the match lasts 1 hour and is divided into four quarters of 15 minutes each. A short break is announced after each quarter. The breaks after the second quarter are longer.

If you decide to bet on netball, you should also understand the location scheme of the players on the court.

Despite the fact that netball and basketball are similar, they have many differences. Here are the most important of them: the playing field is divided into 3 thirds, seven players in a team instead of five, the impossibility of dribbling, the absence of a shield near the ring with a net and the smaller size of the ball. Also, only 2 players can score goals during netball matches and physical contact is penalized.

Major netball events

The presence of numerous tournaments is one of the main features of netball. At GG.Bet, you can find matches within various championships, but the most popular are the international tournaments described below, which definitely deserve your attention.

In the last tournament in 2023 in Cape Town, Australia won again.

As a rule, South Africa, Australia, England and New Zealand have always participated. The composition of the participants may change according to the invitations and the world ranking.
