Netball
The object is to score goals from within a defined area, by throwing a ball into a ring attached to a 3.05 metres (10 feet) high post. The winning team is the one that scores the most goals. Netball is played by more than 20 million people in more than 80 countries worldwide and is most popular in Commonwealth nations. In 1995 netball became a recognised sport by the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
