What's Walking Netball about?
Walking Netball is a modified version of the game that provides less impact than traditional netball, and is perfect for those returning to the game, recovering from injury, or simply just wanting a relaxed version of the game.
Rules of Walking Netball:
The rules of Walking Netball are the same as International Netball Rules except for the following:
- A player must have one foot in contact with the court at all times, this means no running or jumping is allowed
- A player may receive the ball with one foot grounded and then take two steps while in possession of the ball before it is thrown or shot
- A player may hold the ball for 4 seconds before passing or shooting
- Games consist of 4 x 10 minute quarters with 1 minute between quarters
