Where can they go?
The wing defence can move in the defensive and centre third but is not allowed to enter the circle.
What do they do?
They defend the oppositions Wing attack. Contesting the centre pass and forcing the WA out wide.
Defend the WA when they have the ball ensuring they are 3 feet away. Applting pressure to the aatacking team to get a turnover.
Main focue is to stop the opposition WA getting onto the circle edge and into a good position to feed the shooters.

A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
The new season is the perfect moment to set the expectation that every junior player tries every bib. Here is why rotation builds better netballers, how to organise it fairly, and what to say when a player or parent wants "their" position.
Most club teams defend one-on-one and nothing else. A well-drilled zone gives you a second option, and against the right opponent it is the difference between chasing and controlling.
