Netball is a ball sport played by two teams of seven players. Players are assigned specific positions, which define their roles within the team. It also restricts their movement to certain areas of the court. Netball games are played on a rectangular court with raised goal rings at each end. Each team attempts to score goals by passing a ball down the court and shooting it through its goal ring. A player with the ball can hold onto it for only three seconds before shooting for a goal or passing to another player. The winning team is the one that scores the most goals.
