Netball is a popular team sport played between two teams of seven players. The objective is to score goals by passing the ball and shooting it into your team's goal ring. It originated in England in the 1890s and is often played outdoors on a lawn or indoors in a sportshall. Teams are made up of young girls and women from towns across the region, with competitive matches held between different locations. Proper equipment includes a netball, basket, and court along with adherence to rules restricting movement and time of possession.
