England getting adjusted to new netball rules

Jamaica like England, will have to develop strategies to meet the fitness demands of rule changes in netball.

England's ongoing series against Australia is the first to be played under rules which came into effect on January 1.

The rules, meant to make the game faster, outlaw basketball-style injury time outs, eliminate unnecessary whistle-blowing, allow players to take a penalty without waiting for the offender to be out of play and let centre players have just one foot, not two, grounded in the centre circle, before a centre pass.
