The NetballSmart Dynamic Warmup:
The NetballSmart Dynamic warm up is netball specific preparation for each game and
training. It will prepare the player for the movement demands of the game, improve the
movement skill of the player, warm them up and help reduce injury risk.
Why do we need to warm up before netball?
Warming up before playing Netball prepares the body, heart and mind for the upcoming activity. Netball players require a high degree of movement competency, skill and physical capability to cope with the movement patterns that are repeatedly used throughout a game.
