Position: Wing Attack (WA)

Role: To create goal opportunities for the Goal Shooter and Goal Attack

Area: Attacking third and centre third but NOT the goal shooting circle

Moving across two thirds of the court, the Wing Attack is responsible for moving the ball from the centre third into the attacking third to feed it into the shooters. WAs need speed, agility and solid footwork technique to keep up the momentum of the ball as it moves down the court.
