the importance of speed in a game of netball
Hi Mia,
Speed is a key skill within netball in both attack and defence. In attack you need speed to change direction and get away from your defender to receive the ball and stay in possession. You also need speed of passing to get the ball flowing through court.
In defence speed of movement is crucial in order to not only stay with your attacker but also have the speed to move off and go for the interception.
Hope this helps.
Too add, Mia, you have to remember about the three second rule - in my opinion thatâs the worst (most annoying) way to turnover possession to the opponent.

in more ways than one
No more 50/50 toss-ups. When simultaneous infringements occur, possession now goes to the team that last had the ball. Here's what it means for your coaching.
Train your defenders to win clean turnovers, not just disrupt. The difference between good defenders and great ones is taking the ball, not just touching it.
Netball is experiencing unprecedented growth, with record viewership, evolving rules, and professional leagues expanding worldwide. Here's what 2026 brings for our sport.
