Netball and basketball are different sports.
Most Koreans that I have spoken to have not heard of netball so I doubt that they would have a competition here. Maybe some of the foreigners here have started one..... |

basically basketball played as if your feet kept getting nailed to the ground.... Famed as a spectator sport in highschool but only because of the bum-showing short skirts worn by the players.... (oh, should clarify.... its mainly played by females.....) |
