Melbourne, Australia (PressExposure) September 21, 2010 -- Victoria, Australia September 16, 2010 - Melbourne Netball is Australia's leading specialist in social netball. From helping you put together a team of people, to training umpires to standards that are higher than the state system, Melbourne Netball can offer a way to play a great team sport at the same time as having fun.
Players in Melbourne have five venues to participate in social netball, courtesy of Melbourne Netball, with a choice of both indoor and outdoor venues. The helpful staffs at Melbourne Netball are happy to take care of all the details, from helping you to find sufficient team members, setting up games, reserving venues and even providing umpires for your matches.
The popularity of social netball has risen steeply in the past twenty years to become one of the top five participation sports within Australia. Yet mixed-team netball, with both men and women players on each side, has risen to become the single most participated dual-sex sport across Australia and New Zealand.
Netball offers a great opportunity to work within a team framework. Unlike the game of basketball, where it only takes one player to win an entire game, netball is based on far more strategy, with all seven players required to work together in order to win.
Players also derive significant health benefits from playing the fast-paced game. Players must be constantly on the move, which increases fitness levels. The sheer speed at which the game is played means a player can burn as much as 400 calories in a single game.
Of course, Melbourne Netball doesn't only cater to social netball players. Corporate teams are being strongly encouraged by companies who wish their employees to work on team building exercises. When working together in a team participation sport, staffs have an opportunity to learn that they can only achieve success if they work together as a team.
