24 Problems Only Netball Players Will Understand

11. Throwing The Ball Behind You And Pretending It's A Bouquet Of Flowers

When you're chasing the ball and it's going out of court, the only way to give yourself a 50/50 chance to retain possession is to throw the ball behind you back onto the court. It's better than losing the ball completely to the opposition and when you're running too fast to take proper control. But why not have fun with it? You probably imagine the ball being a bouquet of flowers and you're worried that if you ever get married and throw those flowers like you can a ball, you'll probably knock a few of your guests out.
