Live on BBC Two at the moment, the final of the very global netball World Cup Australia against New Zealand (for the 658th time). 

 

It's pretty close, but also pretty weird: half the points are made when the opposing team just does nothing and the player with the ball just stands there for a few seconds and shoots without any opposition Like sort of a friendly form of basketball where the goal is for everyone to score a point

There is no contact allowed what so ever, so they can’t do much. I think it also has something to do with the assigned positions in the sport.

Well that's just silly. So yeah, really sort of a friendly basketball

Well it’s a women’s sport that originated in the British Empire, what did you expect?
