Abstract:
This research stemmed from the observation that much netball coaching is based on relatively superficial and subjective observations of a team's performance and a lack of longer term coaching strategy or recognised 'benchmarks' for relevant aspects of technical and strategic play. A review of the netball literature revealed prolific advice about how to perform technical skills, but little strategic information and even less evidence of relevant benchmarks' for judging the quality of technical or tactical aspects of performance at given levels of play.

This programme of research contributed to the understanding of the process of fitness training adherence of elite netball players. It was designed to quantify fitness training adherence using a valid method of measurement, identify fitness training facilitators and barriers, examine the utility of social cognitive theories in predicting and explaining fitness training adherence and assess the efficacy of a theory-based intervention aimed at improving training adherence.

Abstract:
Netball, a popular team sport in New Zealand, has seven on-court players per team who individually occupy positions with specific roles and boundaries. V-ball is a modified netball game in which five on-court players per team gain experience in three varying roles due to the implementation of positional rotation. This study investigates players’ perceptions of self-satisfaction and team cohesion in netball, a modified netball game (V-ball) or both games. Self-satisfaction has been viewed in terms of individuals’ basic psychological need satisfaction (BPNS). Team cohesion has been considered in

A systematic review focussed on reporting chronic ankle instability within sporting literature confirmed that, not only were aspects of chronic ankle instability across all sports seldom described, netball is a sport scarcely studied in terms of chronic ankle instability. Ninety-three percent of netball players with a previous ankle sprain were defined as having chronic ankle instability. Of those with a previous ankle sprain, 47% had a history of recurrent sprain and 88% reported perceived ankle instability.

This study provided an insight into retirement from sport as it was experienced by former Western Australian elite female netball players. Using a qualitative interpretive approach a three stage interview process was employed to capture the individual experiences of each of the 15 participants.

Abstract:
Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee joint frequently occurs in sports that require the athlete to land or change direction suddenly. The structural integrity of this ligament during such maneuvers is heavily dependent upon coordinated quadriceps and hamstring muscle activation. Therefore, strategies used to recruit these muscles have a pivotal role in equipping the knee to withstand the high forces experienced during dynamic landing to reduce the risk of ACL injury. Despite extensive research pertaining to the ACL, no research has examined whether athletes can change th
