Netball helps us address issues of inequality in sport especially for those in low socio-economic areas or opening doors to those who currently do not play sports.  

Netball is similar to basketball although the rules, equipment and team numbers are different.  There is no dribbling; no running with the ball; 7 players; ball passed within 3 seconds; ball & basket slightly smaller; no backboard; players designated to certain areas. Netball has similarities to European Handball, Korfball and Ultimate Frisbee.

Netball has the following advantages: true team sport (no ball hogs allowed), doesn’t matter size/ability level a position on court for everyone, great hand/eye coordination and teaches spacial awareness.  A great feeder sport for basketball.
