Quick answer
Wing Attack (WA) is an attacking position in netball. WA can move anywhere in the centre third and the attacking third, but is not allowed in the goal circle. The job is to work the width of the court, vary where you receive the ball, drive to the circle edge and feed the Goal Shooter and Goal Attack.
Wing Attack can move anywhere in the centre third and the attacking third. The only area off limits is the goal circle, which is reserved for GS, GA, GK and GD.
WA stands for Wing Attack, one of the seven netball positions. It is an attacking role that feeds the circle from the width of the court but cannot enter the goal circle itself.
Use the centre and attacking thirds to get free, receive on the move, and drive toward the circle edge to set up the Goal Shooter and Goal Attack. Vary your position each phase so defenders can't anticipate you.
Wing Attack's main job is to create scoring opportunities: get the centre pass moving, use the full width of the court, and drive down to the circle edge to feed the shooters.
In the centre third and the attacking third only. Like every netball position, WA is restricted to set areas of the court and would be penalised for offside in the goal circle or the defending third.
