Balance is important for netball players as they have single leg reaching activities when passing ball and changing their position time to time within a narrowed base. They need good balance to shoot the ball successfully and to maintain a good defensive stance posture. Lavipour D, 2011 and Sinaki M et al, 2004 have reported that poor balance leads to falls and injures. There are two divisions in loco-motor balance. They are static loco-motor balance and dynamic loco-motor balance. Dynamic loco-motor

break of the match, the team made their way briskly towards us. As I watched the six familiar figures, thoughts drifted back to what happened in the past month. I love netball–not just the game, but the passion that the game brings out of each and every netball player.

nature so that I am able to engage with my athletes both on and off of the field, so that I can better understand what they are experiencing and why. I think the philosophy I would develop is respect. Respect between peers and coaches.

based on my participation in terms of physical activity as I’ve gotten older I do make up those statistics. As a young girl I was involved in an array of sports such a basketball, athletics, cross country, softball and netball which I would do all in one year. However now I play netball once a week and gym occasionally. I wouldn’t say that for me it’s because I don’t like the competitiveness of the game and I just want to have a relaxed time with my friends because I do like winning and a it of competition

Although over time gender discrimination has grown progressively over the years, one place that gender inequality is not fully present is in the sports world. Gender inequality in sports has been an issue in the industry for centuries. For years and years women faced the issues of lower pay, not as much publicity and not being appreciated as a female athlete. Clearly, even in this prevalent era of alleged equality and impartiality, most sports still remains as a male dominion, as there still is an

I knew I wanted to pursue a degree in Chemistry when I realised Chemistry is not just limited to pretty coloured precipitates and amazing reactions in the laboratory. I am fascinated to discover how Chemistry surrounds us daily, being the basis of numerous life processes, and I find it intriguing knowing everything around us is created through synthesis and reactions of numerous elements and compounds. I always aim to discover and develop my understanding further than my syllabus requires so I immerse

Year 10, the final year of freedom before we are submerged into a sea of internals and exams. The year where the landscape of WEGC drastically changed, overrun with cranes, debris, men with hard hats and makeshift stairs.

Showing the Year 9’s where their classes are, constantly reminding them what side of the corridor to walk on and informing the fresh students of all the DO’s and DON’T’s of college. Being

These three main forms of bullying are physical bullying, verbal bullying and cyberbullying, and I believe that each student should
