The Rules of Netball - EXPLAINED! 

This looks exciting until it comes time for them to shoot the ball and then it looks like the defenders just give a half hearted attempt at a block and then just let them shoot. Interesting sport but not something I'm likely to get into.

Thank you for the videos Ninh! I'm an American...a school teacher as well, and consider myself a lifelong learner. I am always researching, striving to learn something new every day. I have never ever heard of netball! Continued success to you!

Imagine: A basketball game with netball nets...

it's very helpful keep up good work

I play this tommorow (10th October 2019) in PE.

super duper helpful

I've NEVER IN MY LIFE... Seen, heard, knew, ANYTHING about this sport until JUST NOW! I so happen to stumble upon this video.

other thing! If the Goal Shooters shoot the ball outside worths 2 points, of player in center shoots in 1st line is 3 points!

How about a netball penalty shot World Cup like a penalty shoot out but in netball?

Do a golf rules vid, also great vid

Hi, great video except you were incorrect in one part. When explaining the positions and their areas you said that WA GA and GS were allowed in their opponents goal third but it is the other way around. Not trying to be rude but just making sure the information is correct.

Is being attractive a requirement? I noticed some commonalities in the game footage, LOL!

Hey Ninh, another great basketball-like game would be Korfball! It's a gender equality sport with four mean and four women on each team.

Netball originally was called "womens basketball" and the rules are actually a misunderstanding of the rules of basketball

I used to play this at school back in Africa. I didn't even know the true name of the game lmao. We used to call it 'yes' 'yes' because if you want someone to pass the ball to you ,you had to scream 'yes' 'yes'.

So basketball minus back board and fans

“Not everyone is allowed to shoot the ball” yea I’ll leave on that note

I’d like to see 7’1 Kareem Abdul Jabbar play this game

Why they all be playing James Harden defense???

This is almost literally the original rules of basketball when it was first created

Leave a like for Basketball!!

I truly believed they couldn’t make the WNBA any worse. Then they did.

give it up and swich to basketball

My mum was an ace at this damn game. Im very proud although this looks horrible

People comparing basketball to netball fail to realize that netball has it's rules so that it can be played on grass or dirt by people in developing countries. Not everyone has a $30,000 hardwood floor to play on. I know women in Africa who have played netball almost their entire lives and they rarely play on a hardwood floor.

My problem with this sport is the 3 foot distance rule. From all that I've seen, it just results in what are essentially free shots for the goal shooter. The defending team can't really do anything for defense unless they happen to be able to jump 3 feet in the air. All the shot guarding in this video looks half hearted, and it seems that rule is exactly what's causing it.

This is weird.

It's like the g League of wnba

Okay... I literally just heard about this game today. I've watched a ton of videos (seemed interesting) now I realize how much time I've just wasted watching them.

I luv net ball it's my favorite sport

I love netball with all that i have

Ninh explains the Rules of Netball, the most popular female only sport played worldwide. I'm shocked at the number of negative and narrow minded haters that are commenting on this video. Netball is a good sport that is played professionally worldwide. Yes, it's not basketball, and yes it's popular with females worldwide who prefer this to basketball - GET OVER IT!

My teacher uses your vids for homework 😂

I wanna see wnba players play this game

I prefer basketball, way better in physical education

Thank you for explaining, this really helped me since I recently started netball at school!

It's handball with a basketball hoop...or in other words, no dribble bball.

I’m playing netball tonight for the first time in 30 years. I needed a refresh of the rules. Good explanation 🏀

1:47 Well I must say netball promotes social distancing Lol 😆😆

Hey, netball rules have been updated:) might need to redo the video ahha

One rule that is missing from this video is the method of restart. Netball is unique in that teams alternate the restart notwithstanding who scored.

Nice work mate. Kids in South Auckland will benefit from the clarity of instruction.

thanks. this helped me understand netball very easily. i really needed this for my health and physical ed. exams

I wish you could get more subscribers because these videos are amazing I came on this channel to add to my knowledge about Aussie Rules Football and now I am like watching do many videos. Good on you for making these videos and I'll definitely be sharing them. 👍

Pretty clear the game was created as girls version of basketball. But now it's separate sport and girls/women play normal basketball too. Also worth mentioning, actually this game is much closer to original basketball, so back in the days boys and girls basketball rules would be very similar. But basketball developed to be very different from the original game and netball seems to be pretty much the same as it was in 19th century.

Net ball sounds like it could be the name for any sport. So many sports involve a net and a ball 😂

Another episode of why is this in my recommend leave your answers in the replies

I don't really like netball (most ball games in general actually) but this is what I'm doing in PE, so thanks! I'll try even though I'm not a great fan. :)

You are allowed to lift your landing foot off the ground, you just can't put it down again once you lift it off.

in basketball, you can hold the ball for a long as you like before violating the shot clock. here in netball you cannot hold the ball in your hands for more than 3 secs. So those who think this is basketball without the board... nahh.

Netball: Brits adding 29737372 rules to basketball which are impossible to perfectly implement during a game.

3:26 extremely exciting and fast paced. Why don't more people watch this exciting and dynamic sport?

Hol on must be 3 feet from the player with the ball???? It’s like little girls wrote the rules to make it fun for them buuuuuut just not to hard.. 😂

Hello, I am a teacher from Korea and I am teaching korfball and netball to my student! It is really helpful to who want to know these sports. Can I use these two video(korfball and netball) after translating?

Why are there basketball fans here stating that they prefer basketball? Just go watch a basketball video 😂 It’s not a competition

My new girlfriend played netball in high school and she sent me this video. Definitely sounds difficult to keep track of all those rules in the heat of a game!

It’s funny because it’s a non contact sport but it’s still so rough you should see the bruises I get and how many times people get removed from the court because of being too rough lol legit we have had to call an ambulance 4 times this season so far

It looks like sport activity from the victorian era. Probably more fun if you play it in the backyard while doing some bbq with friends and family.

When all of the rules have “at least…” on them that means it’s wack

I've been playing netball since primary school (im in my last year of secondary school btw) i can literally play every position. not bragging but netball is my cocaine

need to change the rules at the basket or make multiple baskets or something, the movement is cool , but the actual scoring is super anti-climactic, just stand there and no one can move, its pretty lame.

Netball has a lot of similarities with proto Women's Basketball whose rules were adapted by Senda Berenson at the end of the last century which also had zones, limit on player movement, limits on dribbling, and passing, and specific roles for players. Take away the back board and it was very much like Netball. I remember watching such a game in high school, though the zones had been decreased to two by 1938. A few years later in my mind sanity prevailed and almost overnight the standard men's game was adopted by 1970, No one misses the old game.

Most of these are the original basketball rules

this is the one video that has actually helped me understand netball so thanks !!

some of you grown men in the comments really need to find something better to do with your time than watching videos on a sport you apparently hate and sexualising the players...

Finally a more feminine version of The WNBA

So basically it's softball but for basketball

everyones here cause their teachers sent them

wheres the dunking lol

Thanks for your efforts in making the video! Hopefully I’ll make a little less of a fool of myself when I give mixed netball a shot tonight now I know the rules

I thought that baseball was the most horrible sport to be played. At least at baseball, you can get drunk and eat hot dogs while you die of boredom.

This is one of the game I have to focus on for PE. NICE GAME

How can the fans or the refs for that matter know what player can move where? They are all in the same uniform. Is there an easy way to tell who is in what position?

For those thinking it's like an easier version of Basketball, it's honestly not. As someone who has played both at state level ( and further for netball ), it is completely different and the rules and skills are the reason for that. And honestly it was a lot easier for me making the basketball team, then netball ( especially here in Australia since the competition in Netball is higher ). My sister who was more into Netball, played Basketball for one year and not only automatically became the best player on her team but also ran circles around other players who have played the sport for a lot longer then her. Netball requires a lot of agility, quick thinking, awareness and fitness depending on which level you play in. It is also a team sport that requires the whole seven players to win a game. There's is no 1v1 moments ( except for a toss up ) and the reason I don't shoot much in Netball ( even though I'm an all-rounder player ) is because there's no backboard. You will not believe how stressful and tiring it is as a shooter ( G.A & G.S ) having to work your way around the circle passing the ball back and forth with your teammates ( since you can't dribble or run with the ball ) to not only shake off the defenders but also get closer to that goal post, so it's easier for you to get that shot. Plus you still only have 3 seconds to make that shot as well. A lot of people really underestimate how intense this sport gets, it's not easy to pick up at first ( due to the rules ) and it will take you a bit to actually get decent at it. But once you do, it's really enjoyable to play.

Heard about this game after a team of men won a championship against women in an Australian league.

From what I've seen on socials, it's mainly a sport played by women.

literally lacrosse mixed with ultimate frisby and a dash of basketball

This must be where the kids who get cut from the basketball team go

Never even heard of this in my life......Interesting!

Bruh I have to go play this today for the first time and My mum said "oh it's just like basketball you'll be fine" Im so happy I googled the rules.

I like basketball and netball why are people fussing about basketball who cares if you prefer basketball

Hello i am starting netball i am leaning by this###########😇😈😱😲😳😤😮😬😑😯😐😑😡😢😮😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 First comet

Test today on this video, wish me luck Edit: I got 70% was hella disappointed, did the end of year exam and got 90% 🤭

Sorry to ask are you a boy or girl sorry to ask that but thanks for you steps and rules helps me out a lot💚💛💜

Great vid lads

Never understood why the comment section is filled with ppl saying they’d rather watch basketball. There’s people who actually likes netball and plays it, if you don’t like watching and don’t like how the game works just go watch basketball or something. It’s not rocket science, ppl 🙄

Its just "Ultimate" basketball without a backboard

Bro I have a netball game in a hour and I forgot all the rules/

WTF

Its a demonic bastardization of basketball, invented by a woman who misunderstood the rulebook sent to her by Dr Naismith. But it seems like the perfect sport for semi pro or semi retired / older BBallers to play. Nah. Ill stick to tennis and golf.

Loving your video's!!

Looks terrible. How is it that Im 37 years old and NEVER heard bout this? Aint missing nothing though. Worse than lacrosse spectator wise

(THIS IS MY OPINION )Basketball is still better because there is more action and where is the ankle breakers 😐🏀

What an incredibly stupid game. Can't pass less than 3 feet, but can't pass more than 6 feet? How the HELL do you reliably enforce that as a referee?

First of all: I keep an eye on your videos, and they are always resourceful. They are a great deal! Netball seems kinda complicated. Also, I support the idea for a korfball video.

Can’t do it, miss the dribbling…..

Why does nobody tries to stop the opposition when they are trying to score?

What the actual hell did I just watch... and the guy above me is right it looks like this was invented while trying to play basketball with a misunderstanding of the rules and the wrong equipment

Crazy how these random sports ive never heard of don't just exist but have massive fan bases/number of players. Also recently heard of AFL (Australian football), Hurley (irish game), Bandy (russian hockey), and Nestball (Finnish baseball)

Looks like a hybrid of ultimate frisbee and basketball
