Walking Netball - on the trot on Mondays in Term 4!
It's never too late to try something new!
This adapted version of netball was introduced in England and is for ladies and gents aged 18+ who may have previously enjoyed netball and would like to play the game again. Perhaps you're recovering from injury, just had a baby, played at primary school and want to have another bash, want to learn to play for the first time, want to stay active in a low-impact way, get a bit fitter, stay mobile or just come and meet new friends and have a laugh!
Rules are:...
- Participants must be over 18 years of age
- No running or jumping - one foot must be on the ground at all times
- Player can hold the ball for up to 4 seconds
- Maximum of three males on courts at any one time - one in the defence circle area, one in the mid-court area and one in the shooting circle area.
- All other standard netball rules apply
No uniforms necessary & bibs are supplied.
Teams are compiled on the night so just turn up!
Short games/quarters of no more than 10 minutes with rolling subs allowed as required. Flexibility vital as depending on numbers on the night means there may be more playing periods for shorter time.
Come and try as a wee taster - with any luck you'll get hooked!
