Netball Is A Fast And Exciting Team Sport

Sexualisation is to make something sexual in character or quality, or to become aware of sexuality, especially in relation to men and women, but in this case, women. Netball is a well-known sport in Australia but, it Is not appealing to television viewers. The game was then brought to Australia as to many other countries, by English school teachers in the early 1900's.Women liked the game but they found that the long passes were difficult to execute in the game due to their limited strength.

The Women’s National Basketball Association, more commonly known as the WNBA, is a professional basketball league consisting of 12 teams spanning across the United States. The league was founded in 1996 but didn’t officially kick off until 1997. While it’s not the first major women’s professional basketball league in the United States, the WNBA is the only league that has received full backing from the National Basketball Association, more commonly, the NBA. Now in its 20th season under the direction of league president Lisa Borders, the regular season is played from June to September with the playoffs spanning through the remainder of September into the middle of October. Although they have the full backing from the NBA, there are still a few discrepancies between the two leagues. Even though WNBA games are not as exciting as NBA games, the players of the WNBA deserve equal pay because the team mindset makes the game more challenging, players continue to show their hard work in the offseason by playing overseas, and they inspire young girls by providing for charities as a result of their work.

In addition to, acknowledgement that the competition is an evaluation of the skills of the participants and the key purpose of the activity is for competition. Competitive cheerleading fits into all five of these categories through stunts, tumbling, competitions, score sheets, time limits, and mat size. Cheerleading also fits into these categories through the Entertainment and Sports Programming Networks (ESPN) comparing cheerleading routines and a competitive cheerleader’s sole purpose is to compete.

The rules of women’s lacrosse are actually quite simple. There are twelve players on the field at all times including the goalkeeper during the sixty minute duration of the game that has two halves. The object of the game is to cradle, catch, pass, and

Like the women do not play on the same size field as the men. The women play on a field that is 120 yards long and 70 yards wide. They need a bigger field since they have more players than the men. Unlike the men’s Lacrosse team, the women cannot have any contact at all. If a woman makes full body contact with an opponent it will be called a personal foul.

Women’s lacrosse does not allow body contact and requires more finesse than the men’s version of the game. Actually, the field lacrosse game played by women today closely resembles the game that Native Americans played because it lacks protective gear and strict boundaries (Vennum). Three attackers, five midfielders, three defenders, and a goalkeeper take the field at a time. High school games last fifty minutes, and college games are played for an hour (“Women’s”). Instead of a faceoff, women’s lacrosse utilizes a draw.

In order to play lacrosse one must first know the rules and regulations. The rules and regulations are fairly easy to learn and once you know them you will never forget. Lacrosse is played with ten players on the field at a time nine position players and the goalie, will discuss positions at a later time. A game starts when all players line up in there given positions and get set for faceoff. In a faceoff players get down to attempt to trap the ball with the head of your stick and gain possession for your team. Once one team has possession you now are on either defenses or offence. The offence is trying to take the ball to the opponent side of the field and put the ball in the goal on the opposition’s side of the field.

The team leader who won (the hula hooping stand-off), sprints to the 4 hurdles set up on their side of the court. The team leader jumps over each one and grabs the netball placed on their end of the court in a hula hoop. Once the team leader has hold of the ball and is in the middle of the hula hoop, this signifies that the game has begun. From here on it is basically like a netball game with a few tweaks. Basketball is incorporated into the game, because you can pass the ball by bouncing it on the floor to your team member, or throwing it to them. Intercepting is allowed, and if the defending team is successful in getting the ball, they become the attacking team. When the ball is either thrown out or rolled out, the team in which touched the ball last give the ball over

At Browns Plains State High School, where the student body consists of adolescent girls, it can be expected that in alignment with research conducted by Allender et al, (2006) the barriers to participation that are most prevalent range from negative experience, lack of self-confidence, restrictive uniforms, gender, favouritism, cultural identity, ethnic background, socioeconomic status, socialisation, society’s expectations and lack of teacher and peer support. Figueroa’s Framework also looks at issues such as race, religion, cultural upbringing, policies, funding, media, development programs, marketing, sponsorship and how these issues affect access and equity/participation in Physical Education. One specific barrier that impacts upon students access to Netball is hegemonic masculinity. Gender stereotyping presents itself in Physical Education classes/the Browns Plains community via the preferential treatment of students, especially boys, who display higher level athletic

Through the movies viewed in this course this semester, we saw women who were able to play against men and still keep their femininity. Nothing is lost when playing sports not traditionally meant for a particular race or gender. Society must become more understanding when it comes to the sports different types of people play and hinder from stereotyping anyone when they participate and perform well in that sport.
