High 5 is the massively popular entry game of netball. It’s a great way for kids to get active, enjoy themselves and make new friends. It’s designed specifically for primary-age children and uses fun and variety to get them into the game, polish skills and aid fitness. Rather than the traditional 7-aside, it's 5-aside, with the aim that players rotate and therefore get used to playing a varitey of positions. Teams can either be single sex or with 2 boys on the court at any one time.
