My Favourite Sport

By Sophie Brennan

My Favourite Sport is Netball

I love playing netball because it is fun and exciting I love the idea of making new friends through a sport I became interested in Netball when I was 8 years old and have been playing ever since

Netta
Netta is like netball but for younger people I played Netta from 8 to 10 years old Netta is for ages 6 to 10 years old Netta teaches kids to get an idea of what netball is

Positions
The positions are C, WA, WD, GD, GA, GS and GK The positions I play are C and WA which are both in centre court

Team
There is 14 people on court at a time, 7 from one team and 7 from the other Each team should have at least 8 people so there is always a sub

Rules
Each position has a set rule where there allowed to go on the court Most positions are allowed in 2 quarters but GS is only allowed in one and C is allowed in all quarters except the circle GS and GA are the shooters and are allowed to shoot in the circle In netball you cant run with the ball There is a defence and attack the defence positions are: GD, GK, WD and C

Recommendation
I recommended netball for all ages This sport is a great way to get fit and meet new people All though it is a competitive sport it is a great way to have fun
