Abstract

Introduction: Netball, originally known as ‘women’s basketball’, was initially designed and traditionally administered as a sport exclusively for women. Since the early 1980’s, however, male participation in netball has grown with a 48% and 240% increase in men’s and boy's participation in netball since 2016, respectively. This is the highest growth rate of any adult men’s sport in Australia. Integrating males into a historically female-only sport has raised important questions about the design and fit of netball equipment for males, such as footwear.
