        Introduction
       
  This School Based Assessment on Physical Education and
Sports entails information about my given role. For this sba my
class was divided and everyone was given a specific role to do.
We were also responsible for deciding among ourselves a sport
for which an annual sports day  must be hosted. Everyone
decided upon netball.
          Netball was chosen because of the great history it has in
our country. Everyone has knowledge about this sport and
must have experience doing a track and field activity.
          On going to the sports day and throughout it, students are
required to fulfill their duties and responsibilities as their
specific role and make reports on what they had done.
My S.B.A is based on the role of a coach.

What is Physical Education?
 Physical education is the foundation of a Comprehensive
School Physical Activity Program. It is an academic subject
characterized by a planned, sequential K–12 curriculum
(course of study) that is based on the national standards
for physical education. Physical education provides
cognitive content and instruction designed to develop
motor skills, knowledge, and behaviors for physical activity
and physical fitness. Supporting schools to establish
physical education daily can provide students with the
ability and confidence to be physically active for a lifetime.
.
 Physical education, also known as Phys Ed., PE, gym,
or gym class, and in some Commonwealth countries
as physical training or PT, is a class that pupils are
required to take at school. It is taken during primary
and secondary education and encourages psychomotor
learning in a play or movement exploration setting to
promote health. In addition, physical literacy is a 21st-
century term that first emerged in the sport literature
before also being applied to physical education. The
concept of physical literacy covers a variety of
conditions for a student. Whether its motivation,
confidence, physical competence, knowledge and
understanding for student. Teachers implement these
different concepts into their lesson plans to teach and
develop students accordingly and appropriately for
their individual success and education

7
 What is Sport?
 An activity involving physical exertion and skill in which an
individual or team competes against another or others for
entertainment.
 Sport includes all forms of competitive physical activity or
games which, through casual or organized participation, at
least in part aim to use, maintain or improve physical
ability and skills while providing enjoyment to participants,
and in some cases, entertainment for spectators.
Examples include:
 Soccer/football.
 Badminton.
 Field Hockey.
 Volleyball.

8
 What is Netball?
 Netball is similar to basketball although the rules,
equipment and team numbers are different.  There is no
dribbling; no running with the ball; 7 players; ball passed
within 3 seconds; ball & basket slightly smaller; no
backboard; players designated to certain areas. Netball
has similarities to European Handball, Korfball and
Ultimate Frisbee.
 Netball has the following advantages: true team sport (no
ball hogs allowed), doesn’t matter size/ability level a
position on court for everyone, great hand/eye
coordination and teaches special awareness.  A great
feeder sport for basketball.
 Netball is an exciting, fast and skillful game. It is a game in which
two teams of seven players each strive to keep or gain possession
of the ball.
 The team with the greater number of goals at the end of the game
is the winner.
 While Netball developed first as a game predominantly played by
women and girls, it is now played by boys and girls, women and
men.

 History of Netball
 A year after basketball was invented in 1891; the sport was
modified for women to accommodate social conventions
regarding their participation in sport, giving rise to women's
basketball. Variations of women's basketball arose across the
United States and in England. At the Bergman Österberg
physical training college in Dartford, England, the rules of
women's basketball were modified over several years to form
an entirely new sport: "net ball".[1] The first codified rules of
netball were published at the start of the twentieth century,
and from there the new sport spread throughout the British
Empire.
Netball was first played in England in 1895 at Madame
Ostenburg’s College. In the first half of the 20th century,
Netball’s popularity continued to grow, with the game being
played in many British Commonwealth countries. There were
no standard rules at that time with both nine-a-side and five-a-
side versions of the game.
During an Australian tour of England in 1957, discussions took
place concerning standardizing the rules of the sport and this
led to representatives from England, Australia, New Zealand,
South Africa and The West Indies meeting in Sri Lanka in 1960,
to establish The International Federation of Women’s
Basketball and Netball. Formal rules were established at this
inaugural meeting and it was decided to hold World
Championship tournaments every four years, beginning in
Eastbourne, England, in 1963.
10
Since then World Championships have been held in Australia
1967, Jamaica 1971, New Zealand 1975, Trinidad & Tobago
1979, Singapore 1983, Scotland 1987, Australia 1991, England
1995 and New Zealand 1999. Throughout this period, Australia
has dominated, winning the event in 1971, 1975, 1979, 1983,
1991, 1995 and 1999. The 2003 World Netball Championships
in Kingston, Jamaica saw New Zealand finally breaking the
Australian dominance taking Gold. The 2007 World Netball
Championships was due to take place in Fiji but a political coup
in the country led to the event being transferred to Auckland,
New Zealand. Despite the home advantage, New Zealand was
unable to defend their crown and Australia were once more
World Champions. Australia retained their title in 2011 in
Singapore and in 2015 in Sydney.
As part of the Australian Bicentenary Celebrations in 1988, a
Youth Tournament took place in Canberra, for players aged
under 21. Its success led to this event being held once every
four years. Fiji hosted the 2nd World Youth Netball
Championship, Canada the 3rd and the 4th has just taken place
in Wales. Australia was winners in 1988, New Zealand in 1992
and Australia again in 1996 and 2000. At the 2005 World Youth
Netball Championship, held in Florida New Zealand Won Gold,
England Silver and Australia took the Bronze.
In 1995 Netball became a “recognized” sport of
the International Olympic Committee (IOC) and

One of the Federation’s objectives is to ensure this status is

retained and to encourage the International Olympic
11
Committee to include Netball in the Olympic Games
Programmed in the future.
Netball was included in the Commonwealth Games
programmer, for the first time, in 1998 in Kuala Lumpur, where
Australia took the Gold medal, New Zealand Silver and England
the Bronze. It was also a programmed sport in 2002
Commonwealth Games in Manchester (England), where
Australia again took the Gold medal, New Zealand Silver and
Jamaica edging out England for the Bronze. In 2006
(Melbourne, Australia) and 2010 (Delhi, India) New Zealand
beat Australia and England won the bronze medal. Netball is
now a core sport in the Commonwealth Games, with the next
editions taking place in The Gold Coast, 2018.
2008 saw the launch of Fast Net World Netball Series, a shorter,
sharper version of the game which in 2012 evolved into Fast5,
attracting new audiences around the globe.
2012 also saw the sport’s governing body unveil a new logo and
renamed itself as the International Netball Federation (INF). We
hope that you will join us on Netball’s journey to the future.

12
 Rules of Netball
 A match consists of four quarters lasting 15 minutes each.
 Each team can have a maximum of 7 players and a
minimum of 5.
 The court must be divided unto 3 sections, with each
player holding a specific position on the court.
 If a player moves into a position that they shouldn’t be in,
they will be deemed to be offside.
 Players cannot hold the ball for more than three seconds.
 Players cannot take more than 1.5 steps when in
possession of the ball.
 The ball must go through the ringed hoop for a goal to be
given.

13
A netball team consists of 7 players in different positions. 
No more than 7 players from a team may be on court at a time,
and at least 5 players must be on court for play to commence
with at least one of the players being C.
Free pass – When a rule is broken that does not directly affect
another player eg footwork.
– A free pass is set where the umpire indicates, and any player
allowed in that area may take the pass.  No players are out of
play. If a free pass is set within a shooting circle to the attacking
team a shot MAY NOT be taken.
Penalty pass – When a rule is broken that directly affects
another player eg contact
– A penalty pass is set where the umpire indicates, and any
player allowed in that area may take the pass.  The infringing
player must stand next to the player taking the penalty and
remain out of play until the penalty has been taken.  If the
penalty is set within a shooting circle to the attacking team
then a shot may be attempted.
The player taking either type of sanction must still obey all
netball rules.
Advantage – An umpire will play advantage if they have noticed
an infringement has taken place but feel calling for a sanction
will disadvantage the attacking team.  They will not blow their
whistle but will call “advantage plus the infringement”.  Play
does not stop for an advantage and is only played in that
moment against that infringement.

14
Start of play
The controlling umpire will blow their whistle for the start of
play when the attacking C is in possession of the ball and with
at least one foot wholly within the center circle.  At the point of
the whistle being blown all players must be in their respective
thirds.  The defending C must be in the center third and all
others in their respective attacking/defensive thirds.  Any
players not in the correct area will be deemed to be offside.
It is up to the individual players to make sure they are correctly
positioned before the whistle is blown.  A C should step straight
into the circle, not wait for players to be onside.
Sanction – Free pass where the incorrectly positioned player
was
The center pass must be caught within the center third.  A
player can jump from a goal third, catch the ball and land within
the center third.
Sanction – Free pass where the ball crossed the transverse line
Out of Court
A ball is deemed to be out of court if it makes contact with the
ground or any object/person in contact with the ground outside
the court.
Sanction – Throw-in awarded to the team who did not touch
the ball on court last
A Throw-in is set where the umpire indicates.  A players landing
foot must be within 6 inches of the line, but not touching.  The
player must obey all other rules and release the ball before
making contact with the court. 

15
 All other players must be on court when the throw-in is taken,
and the ball must enter the
court.
Sanction – Throw-in to opposing team from same position
Scoring a goal
Only GA and GS can score a goal.  They must have made no
contact with the court outside the shooting circle whilst in
possession of the ball, when intentionally making a shot at
goal.  The ball must pass through the ring from above, and must
have passed through the ring before time ends for the goal to
count
Sanction – A free pass to the opposing team outside the circle
If the ball passes through the ring after being deflected by a
defender, then the goal will stand.  If the ball passes through
the ring thrown by any player other than the GA/GS then the
ball is still in play and no goal is scored.
Offside
A player is deemed offside if any part of their body makes
contact with the ground in an area that they are not allowed to
enter.  A player may lean on the ball in an offside area.
Sanction – Free pass to the opposing team where the player
went offside
Footwork
A player may not re-ground their landing foot whilst in
possession of the ball.  The landing foot is deemed to be the
first foot to make contact with the ground.  If a player already
has one foot in contact with the ground when catching the ball

16
this is their landing foot. 

If the player lands simultaneously with both feet, then

whichever foot is not moved is their landing foot. A player may
not drag or slide their landing foot, or hop on either foot.
Sanction – Free pass to the opposing team where the player
caught the ball
Held Ball
Once gaining possession of a ball a player must release the ball
within 3 seconds
Sanction – Free pass to the opposing team where the player
caught the ball
Playing the ball
A player may gain possession of the ball by catching the ball
either from another player or rebounding of the goalpost or
rolling the ball to oneself.
A player in possession of the ball may NOT throw it deliberately
at another player or roll it to another player.  A player who falls
whilst in possession of the ball must regain their footing before
passing the ball.   After releasing the ball, a player may not
regain possession of the ball until it has been touched by
another player, or rebounds of the goal post.  A player may not
deliberately kick the ball, fall on the ball to gain possession or
strike the ball with a fist.
A player not in possession of the ball may bat or bounce the
ball once before either catching it or batting/bouncing it to
another player.

17
Tip the ball in an uncontrolled manner more than once, before
catching the ball, or batting it to another player.
Sanction – Free pass to the opposing team where the player
caught the ball
Over a Third
The ball must be caught or touched by a player in each third of
the court.
Sanction – Free pass to the opposing team by the transverse
line in the third where the ball entered incorrectly
Obstruction – Of a player with the ball
An opposing player may not attempt to defend a player in
possession of the ball if they are within 3 feet of the landing
foot of the player with the ball.
Sanction – Penalty Pass where the infringer was stood
An opposing player who is the correct distance from the player
in possession of the ball may attempt to defend the ball by
jumping upwards, provided that if they land closer than 3 feet
they do not interfere with the shooting or passing action.
If the player with the ball chooses to shorten the distance
between themselves and the opposing player, the opposing
player does not have to move.
A defending player may be within 3 feet of the player with the
ball providing they do not interfere with the players shooting or
passing action.
Obstruction – Of a player without the ball
A player who is within 3 feet of an opponent, whether attacking
or defending may not use movements that take the arms away

18
from the body so as to limit the possible movements of an
opponent.
Sanction – Penalty Pass where the infringer was stood
Contact
Netball is no longer considered a non-contact sport.  It is now
referred to is a contact-contest sport.   When playing netball
players may come into contact with other players.  Provided
this contact does not interfere with each other’s play an umpire
will deem this as contest and allow play to carry on.
Should the contact between players interfere in any way with
another player, either accidentally or deliberately, then a
contact infringement will be called.
Contact can occur from physical contact using any part of the
body to limit an opponent’s ability to move freely, knocking or
hitting a player, making contact with the ball held by an
opponent or whilst holding the ball, pushing it into opponent.
Contact can also occur if a player lands in a place already
occupied by an opponent or moving into the path of an
opponent who is committed to a particular landing spot. 
Players may also not position so closely to an opponent such
that they are unable to move without contacting.
Sanction – Penalty Pass where the infringement took place
Leaving the court
A player may choose to leave the court to reposition
themselves.  Provided a defender does not also leave the court,
contact or obstruct that player, they may attempt to stop them
from re-entering the court.

19
Sanction – Penalty Pass on court where infringer was stood
A player who has left the court may not defend another player
whether they are on or off the court.
Sanction – Penalty Pass on court next to where infringer was
stood off court
A player who has left the court to retrieve the ball or take a
throw-in must be allowed to re-enter the court where they left
it or took the throw-in from.
Foul Play
Foul Play is anything a player does within the field of play that is
contrary to the letter and spirit of the Rules of the Game.  This
includes dangerous play, unfair play, and dissent with the
umpire.  An umpire will decide what level of sanction is
required from within the Game Management spectrum of
sanctions, Cautions, Warnings or Suspensions.
Play Netball supports all of the umpires in its’ leagues and will
not tolerate any disrespect shown towards an umpire either on
or off the court.
Leagues
Our leagues run anything from 7-14 week seasons throughout
the year depending on how many teams are in your league.
After a season is finished we will have 1-2 week break before
going into a new season. If you league has multiple divisions
then there will be promotions and relegation’s (top & bottom
two teams) before the new season starts.

20

 Officers and Officials of netball

1. Goal Shooter (GS)

The main role of the Goal Shooter (GS) is to score, by

shooting the ball into the hoop. This can only be done
within the goal circle. The GS is not allowed to score a goal
beyond the perimeters of the goal circle. The outcome of
the game depends on the number of shots put in by the
GS.

Area of play: The opposing team’s goal third, including the

goal circle.
Common traits: The GS is usually among the taller players
of the team, has steady hands and accurate shooting skills.
She must also have quick reflexes to catch rebounds.

2. Goal Attack (GA)

The Goal Attack (GA) is responsible for setting up offensive

plays and scoring goals. She also feeds the ball to the GS to
shoot. She works very closely with the GS, and it is not
uncommon to see exceptional camaraderie between the
duo. Area of play: The opposing team’s goal third,
including the goal circle, and the center third.
Common traits: The GA is usually among the taller players

22
on the team, has strong passing ability and accurate
shooting skills. 

3. Wing Attack (WA)

The Wing Attack (WA) is chiefly responsible for moving the

ball down from the center third to the goal third and for
feeding the ball into the shooters’ hands, which includes
both the GS and the GA. Their job is to create as many
chances to score as possible. 

Area of play: The opposing team’s goal third, excluding the

goal circle, and the center third.
Common traits: The WA is usually the fastest player on
court, has solid passing skills, and excellent footwork and
ball handling skills.

4. Centre (C) 

The Centre starts and restarts the game from the centre
circle each time a goal is scored. She dictates the pace of
her team’s play, creates space on court and is depended
upon for both attacking and defending. She is required to
take the offensive by shifting the ball from the defensive
area to the attacking side, and also switches to take a
defensive stance when required. She is also required to
feed the ball to the shooters in the goal circle. 

23
Area of play: Anywhere except the goal circles of both
teams.
Common traits: She has an exceptional fitness level, strong
passing skills, and the ability to analyses and changes her
team’s play if necessary.

5. Wing Defense (WD)

The Wing Defense (WD) is always on the defensive, unless

there’s a turnover and she has to bring the ball down to
her attacking side. She is responsible for defending the
opposing team’s players, mainly the WA, and for stopping
the ball from reaching the goal circle. She is to intercept at
any possible chance. 

Area of play: The team’s goal third, excluding the goal

circle, and the center third.
Common traits: The WD is consistently focused and swift
to react.

6. Goal Defense (GD)

The chief role of the Goal Defense (GD) is to defend the

ball from reaching the opposing shooters in a spot where
they are comfortable to shoot. They must always be on
the lookout for chances to intercept the ball and achieve
turnovers.

24
They also keep a close look on the opposing team’s GA. 

Area of play: The team’s goal third, including the goal

circle and the centre third.
Common traits: The GD is usually among the taller players
of the team. She must be focused, have quick footwork
and be quick to react to catch rebounds. They must also
have good anticipation skills so that they can counter their
opponent’s set-up and prevent them from scoring.

7. Goal Keeper (GK)

The Goal Keeper’s (GK) primary function is to guard the

goal circle, defend the opposing shooters and prevent
them from scoring goals. She is also responsible for taking
throw-ins at the base line. She can be considered as the
last line of defence. The GK usually has strong camaraderie
with the GD and they work together to defend the
opposing shooters, intercept balls and catch rebounds. 

Area of play: The team’s goal third, including the goal

circle.
Common traits: The GK is usually among the taller players
of the team and has to be extremely alert of the game play
in order to intercept and turn the game around.

 Affairs / Officials of a netball game

 There are two key strands to officiating: Match Officials

(two umpires and a reserve) and Technical Officials
(scorers, timekeepers and any other officials specified for
an event). 
 Umpires and scorers are integral to the game of Netball to
help facilitate a flowing, enjoyable game for all
participants, including players, coaches, administrators,
and spectators.  The approach that officials take plays a
large part in the success of the game for all.
 Netball continues to grow around the world with over 20
million women and girls playing the sport which can be
attributed to the success of major events such as the

27
 Netball World Youth Cup 2017, Gaborone, Commonwealth
Games 2018, Gold Coast and the Netball World Cup 2019,
Liverpool. Through World Class Officiating, the INF is
committed to developing and improving officiating for
international events.

Chapter two
28
 Who is a Coach?
 In sports, a coach is a person involved in the direction,
instruction and training of the operations of a sports team
or of individual sportspeople. A coach may also be a
teacher. This person is at the reporting level (above the
working team) in a team based organization where
leadership is shared among team members. A coach leads
more through collaborating than through ‘directing.’ A
coach is also sometimes called a coordinator, facilitator,
or mentor. Their main go is to encourage and train
someone to accomplish a goal or task.

29
 Roles of a Coach

 The role of a “coach” is not just coaching! This means

the coach is helping the individual to improve their
own performance: In other words, helping them to
learn.
 Some important roles of a coach are:
 -Sports coaches assist athletes in developing to their
full potential.
 -Coaches are responsible for training athletes in a
sport by analyzing their performances, instructing in
relevant skills and provide encouragement.
 -Responsible for planning training programs and
writing reports.
 -Reason with the Manager, Captain and other players
to work out ways to improve the team’s
performances.
 -Monitors and evaluates team performance.
 -Responsible for tactical and technical decisions.
 -Meets with Team Manager to organize and plan
training sessions.

 Reflection # 1
  

Before
The rally was planned months before it actually took place. The
rally was supposed to be played by the 7th graders but because
of Covid-19 pandemic , we were the ones who had to play the
rally ourselves. The rally was being planned and time and date
were talked in a meeting days before it was finalized. Mask was
one of the main item that was warned to be won at the rally.

  

48
Reflection # 2

During
On the day of the rally I took pictures of each person and their roles
because I was the coach. There were no challenges during the
competition everything went as planned. The only issue in the game
was that persons weren’t in their right playing position and that caused
the umpire to be stopping the game.

49
Reflection # 3

After
The competition was a good one it was fully organized and everyone
got a chance to play. When the rally was over medals were being
awarded to the wining team . also after the rally everyone sanitized
their hands and were putting themselves together to leave the campus.
