Can a GA or GS use the post to rebound the ball from a back line, if they ground their feet on court first? This has happened in a match at U13 level and I wondered if it was allowed or manipulating the rules to the extreme
Hi Vanessa ,
I have seen this done a couple of times, it was very effective. It is good to use occasionally because it is like the Spanish inquistion...Nobody expects it :-) . Probably need some practice first though at training sessions....
nope it is fully allowed. so the person doing the throw in from the back line can use the post to throw the ball at, but before they touch the ball they must have touched on court again. they can also use a player to play the ball off too. not manipulation, just a rule that is not used much as it tends to be a little unpredicable or known.
Many thanks for your reply

Split circle defence is the system the top three NSL teams have built their identity around in 2026. The Goal Keeper and Goal Defence divide the circle into zones, switch in synchrony, and make every passing option look risky. Here is how to coach it.
Most netball shooters know how to shoot. The difference at the top is who can shoot when it counts. A structured 10-minute pre-game mental routine is the most under-used performance tool in club netball - and it is the simplest to teach.
The best Goal Defences in the 2026 NSL season are intercepting more than ever. The reason is not raw athleticism. It is a deliberate shift from chasing the attacker to driving into the flight path of the ball. Here is how to coach it.
