Game Last Night

Ok ok....I know i have been a little slack with keeping up the spirits......But Back in the game!
Monique sent out an email this after noon!

Hello netballers, well a big thank you to everyone who turned up to play last night and welcome to Nikki and her daughters. It was great game, evenly matched but the orange team captained by Michelle managed to take the match over the blue team, captained by Sarah, 14 to 11.

As mentioned the final night for netball this year will be Tuesday November 24th so we'd love to see a great turn out over the coming weeks.

Mark your diaries for Friday December 4th for the Pattaya Netball Christmas Bash. Tentative plans are for a casual dinner and for those who wish to kick on drinks, dancing, challenges etc will come later. If anyone knows of a great place for dinner please let me know, I don't go out much!

Could you please RSVP for dinner by Friday November 27th. We will send an RSVP reminder the week of the 23rd.

So let her KNOW!

Questions and Answers:

What if its raining?
Depending on where its raining. Sometimes its pouring down in Jomtien and Sunny in Naklua. So we all keep contact with the Naklua side. But usually we will send an email/ sms between 5-6pm to let you know if its cancelled.

What if it stars raining while we playing?

Well....we'll usually get off the court and go for a drink....

What are the Court Fee's For?
Court fees are for the general Use of the faciility; they are really good facilities; so its also for the electricity used to power the night lights; as well as the cost for making up the bibs etc. Also Once we have paid for the bibs and facilities we will have a profit of which we can use to the teams descrecion.

Just drop us an email or a text message!

How can i get more information?
If you need more info please feel free to email us at pattayanetball@gmail.com

I see that its a mixed leauge and im a bit nervous of playing with Men?
Netball is a no contact sport. So if the guys are getting to rough or to close they get blown up and sent off. We have the blokes playing soley on the basis of low numbers; and its great to get some husbands involved. Once we have the numbers up we can divide the teams into all female and maybe a mixed team. We Can all see how this develops in the futurer if the numbers pick up a bit.

I have noticed that there is more than one team playing? I would like to join but am concerned the teams are full?

We have different team names to keep ourselves entertained. We generally count up the numbers and split them in 2 and give them random names just to mix the team we do have up a little. It allows for the weaker and stronger players to improve their skills and makes for some interesting "team spirit" :)

How is basketball and netball different?

Netball is a non-contact generally indoor sport similar to, and derived from, basketball. It is usually known as a women's sport. It was originally known in its country of origin, the United States, as "women's basketball". Invented in 1895 by Clara Gregory Baer, a pioneer in women's sport.

Netball has a few similarities to basketball. That's because it started off as a women's version of basketball in America. The really big difference between netball and basketball is that you can't dribble with the ball. Instead you can step or pivot from your landing foot before passing the ball on in Netball sport. In basketball u have contact, as it is a ball and court based game played on a court by oppsing teams of 5 players.

A netball court is divided into three sections with seven players on each team. You can't throw the ball the whole length of the court, it has to be passed through every section. Netball is a non-contact sport and the defenders have to be 0.9 metres from the player with the ball. To keep the game really fast, once you've caught the ball, you only have three seconds to pass it on again. Shooting is pretty simple too, the ball goes through the net and it's a point for your team.
