Advice on becoming a better GA

Hi, I am a 13 year old girl who plays netball every Saturday. I have been playing netball as a centre since I was about 9 yrs old. When I moved teams I changed to GA cause they needed a GA. I had also been playing basketball so when I moved into GA I shot like a basketballer. I only just recently started trying to shoot like a netballer, but it is't really working. Our GS is usually the player that shoots most of our goals but she broke 2 fingers and is out for the finals. I need some advice to help me to be a better GA and step up a shoot lots of goals to see our team go into the grand final.I need help learning to shoot better but my coach is young and plays defence. p.s. I am the only other shooter in my team.

Intimidation?!

My GD was do face marking in a game and doing a fantastic job at blocking the GA entering the circle and not being able to shake her off, the umpire for the other team repeatedly called her for intimidation.To me it did not appear to be intimidation and the player herself umpires and sees this in many of the high level games. She is not pushing, no arms are used in fact it is the other players pushing into her. Is this intimidation I thought that was a pretty tough call. What constitutes as intimidation?

Can you jump as you shoot in Netball?

I know the normal technique for shooting in netball keeps two feet on the ground, but I would just like to know whether that would be a foul if you jumped as you took your shot? Thanks

GD Staying with GA. Rebounds by Defence & Attack?

How do you get the Goal Defence staying with the Goal Attack, especially when the Goal Attack drops down behind the Goal Defence and gets the ball all the time in the Goal Circle?How do you get the Defence in the Goal Circle to rebound and how do you get the Goal Shooters following their shot and rebound?

Recording goal attempts

I am recording my goalers accuracy in games. Do you count a missed attempt as a miss if it was obstructed and the shooter gets awarded a penalty shot? Or do you just count the penalty shot as an attempt?

Shooting when mid-jump

Just wondering if you are able to put up a shot when both feet are off the ground, in mid-jump. I am coaching boys and curious to know if they are able to "slam-dunk" in netball so to speak. I know that touching the ring in any way is not allowed but is the goal valid if scored when the player doesn't have contact with the ground? Thank you

Netball Umpiring

Hi,I'm 12 and a senior netball player for my school team. I am learning how to umpire but my teacher is giving me a hard time saying I'm not a good umpire and that the other girls have done years of practice of umpiring unlike me. I just have to ask what's obstruction? I get all the umpire rules but obstruction. Please help as I am umpiring in a few days for a netball game and it's the first game I am umpiring.
