What skills and abilities do you have to have to play netball?
There are many different skills and tactics needed to play netball, their are three basic sections for the different skills, and the tactics you learn from experience.. The three sub sections are: Basic skills, which includes Hand positions, catching, throwing, how to throw and catch, feet positions and basic netta and netball rules. The next sub section is middle skills, this includes all positions, stopping with the ball, three foot defence, streches, warming up, warming down and ball skills. The third sub section is called the higher skills, this includes defence, attack, shooting, keeping, how to work the court and talking to all of the players to communicate.
Their are many different tactics you can use to fool your apponents mind and reactions, like falking the ball. That means that you pretend to throw the ball one way, so your opponent jumps that way trying to block the ball, and while this is happening, you would falk the ball and throw it the other way. Another tactic for the goal circle is if you are a shooter, but you must make sure the other players in your team know what you are doing is, that lets just say WA passes you the ball, and you are too fat away to shoot you would pivit around, put your non-grounded foot towards the goal circle and pass it back. Then taking a step back, and WA passes the ball back to you. So you remember it like this, pass, pivit, step, pass, step, shoot. Or you can do it again if you are still to fat away. And if your opponent touches your foot when you have the ball and they dont see it, then they get called up for contact or obstruction with the ball.
A defending tip about this is that make sure that the ball has just left the tips of their fingers before you jump.
Hope this answers all your questians.
