There are seven players on the court for each team at a time.

True
False

Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

The statement is true because in basketball, there are typically five players from each team on the court at a time. These players are responsible for playing offense and defense, and they work together to score points and prevent the opposing team from scoring. Additionally, there are usually two additional players from each team on the bench, ready to substitute in if needed. Therefore, when both teams have their full roster on the court, there are indeed seven players on the court for each team at a time.

When defending the ball, the defender is allowed to stand how far away from the opposition player that has the ball?

Standing closer than 3 feet may result in a foul or violation.

True
False

Correct Answer

A. True

Explanation

The explanation for the given answer is that in netball, the Goal Attack and Goal Shooter positions are responsible for shooting goals. These two players are typically positioned in the attacking third of the court and their main objective is to score goals by shooting the ball into the opposing team's net. Other players on the court, such as the Center, Wing Attack, Wing Defense, Goal Defense, and Goal Keeper, have different roles and responsibilities but are not specifically designated to shoot goals. Therefore, the statement that the Goal Attack and Goal Shooter are the only two players on the court able to shoot goals is true.

When passing the ball to your team mate you must

Be at least a metre away
Have enough space in between you both for another person to defend
Be looking at some else and then throw it to a different person
Be more than five metres away

Correct Answer

A. Have enough space in between you both for another person to defend

Explanation

To pass the ball effectively, it is important to have enough space between you and your teammate for another person to defend. This allows for better maneuverability and reduces the chances of the ball being intercepted by an opponent. Having enough space also gives your teammate more options and flexibility in receiving the pass, increasing the chances of a successful play.
