NETBALL - ADAPTING TO ACHIEVE ITS GOALS
Netball is an atheletic sport played primarily by females throughout the world. Just over 10 million girls and women as well as some men play this sport.
While talking about netball, politics and health often comes into the equation... lets talk about that too.
Together we will mix it up for the betterment of everyone concerned.
I believe every country in the Caribbean can identify with these sentiments. Barbados recognised the importance of competition other than against its neigbors leading up to the world championships in 2003. As a result of playing aginst Australia, New Zealand, England, South Africa and Jamaica , Barbados landed a 7th place world ranking.
Barbados just went on a tour of South Africa , which caused its rating to drop to twelve at this time.
Jamaica won the first game against Trinidad and Tobago 59-30 and have defeated South Africa, but are yet to lessen the number of unforced errors in the 60 minutes of a netball game. South AFrica, obviously not up to the standard of the SA teams of the late 1990's and struggling.
WEll lets see how this series goes..the number 7th ranked team ..T & T...the number 9 ranked team....South AFrica and the number 4 ranked team...Jamaica
On paper should be a good series...lets hope for international netball sake..it is competitive and does not contain any blow out scores!!!!!!
