In December 2023 World Netball (WN) has launched the Rules of Netball 2024 Edition, along with free educational rules resources. The new rules will come into play for all international matches from the 1st January 2024.
The rules changes focus specifically on player safety and game management along with clarification and streamlining of existing rules such as contact and advantage. The layout of the Rules has also been updated to simplify and encourage use by all of the Netball Family, not just umpires.

You can also download the Rules of Netball App for free via Apple or Google Play Stores. The App will be updated when the new rules come into play from the 1st January 2024.
