http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netball hoho, juz a quick briefing about what netball is...
Netball is a ball sport played between two teams of seven players. Its development, derived from early versions of basketball, began in England in the 1890s. By 1960 international playing rules had been standardised for the game, and the International Federation of Netball and Women's Basketball (later renamed the International
Federation of Netball Associations (IFNA)) was formed. As of 2011, IFNA comprises more than 60 national teamsorganized into in five global regions.
Games are played on a rectangular court with raised goal rings at each end. Each team attempts to score goals by passing a ball down the court and shooting it through its goal ring. Players are assigned specific positions, which define their roles within the team and restrict their movement to certain areas of the court. During general play, a player with the ball can hold onto it for only three seconds before shooting for a goal or passing to another player. The winning team is the one that scores the most goals. Netball games are 60 minutes long. Variations have been developed to increase the game's pace and appeal to a wider audience.
Netball is most popular in Commonwealth nations, specifically in schools, and is predominantly played by women. According to the IFNA, netball is played by more than 20 million people in more than 80 countries. Major transnational competitions take place, including the Netball Superleague in Great Britain and the ANZ Championship in Australia and New Zealand. Three major competitions take place internationally: the quadrennial World Netball Championships, the Commonwealth Games, and the yearly World Netball Series. In 1995 netball became an International Olympic Committee recognised sport.
All right, that's the briefing...
I was juz finish my netball competition juz now and it is quiet interesting to play netball. It is part of my favourite sports since i am in a primary school. Leaving netball for the past two years, I become not really familiar with the rules of playing netball..
haha, juz play it, enjoy what we faced. Sports as well as us gain the healthy lifestyle by doing some exercise benefits for our body. One of the 10 Muwassofat Tarbiyah, hehe...
Juz move on, mayb for the next game, we will b getting better...i.A. Quitting for a long time might b the cause of didn't know to play better in the games..talking about playing netball, I start to figure out that if we don't try to get what we want, we will not going to get what we want...
As in netball sports, we all want the ball to get the points and win but what if we will juz stand there and didn't know what to do, letting the others struggle for it while we are juz stand?? All of us want to win in everything that we do, but do we really done enough in other to win or succeed in our life??
Another thing that I learn, never give up even though you are loose in the middle of the games. It doesn't matter what happen at the beginning, what happen at the end is far more precious, thoughtful n meaningful. He always by our side, u know? Try, try and try. We may not win, but what is the difference between someone who are juz stand but wanted to win and the one who are still fighting in other to win? The chances are there, it is juz us whether we want to do it or not.
Go for it... >,<
