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'.

Netball originally was called "womens basketball"

and the rules are actually a misunderstanding of the rules of basketball

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.

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

So basketball minus back board and fans

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!

Iam starting a netball team in my State, Grand Rapids Michigan. I have a sponsor that has asked me to come up with a female game . I didn’t know I could find netball on YouTube, I last played it 14 years ago back in Africa in high school.
This is amazing . Thanks for putting this together!!

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

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.

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

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

[slumped]

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

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

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.

Why they all be playing James Harden defense???
