IT’S NETBALL SEASON!

With the Darwin netball season just around the corner, the Marrara courts are soon to be filled with goals, intercepts — and unfortunately, the occasional rolled ankle or twisted knee.

So let’s look in to the two most common injuries in netball, how we can prevent them and the best way to manage them?

Ankle Sprains
Ankle sprains are one of the most common injuries in netball due to the sport’s dynamic movements, including cutting, pivoting, jumping, and landing in a confined court space.

Netball has one of the highest incidence rates of ankle sprains among all sports, accounting for approximately 40% of netball-related injuries.

Knee Injuries
Knee injuries, particularly anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures, are the second most frequently reported injuries in netball.

ACL injuries often occur when the knee collapses inward and rotates internally, typically during landing or change of direction movements.

Prevention Strategies
With the increasing incidence of netball-related knee and ankle injuries, injury prevention programs have gained significant attention.
Exercise-based warm-up programs have been proven to reduce injury risk, with studies showing a 50% reduction in ACL injuries among female athletes.

Netball Australia has developed a targeted initiative aimed at preventing knee and ankle injuries.

The Netball KNEE Program!

The program consists of four key components:

1. Warm-up & Footwork
2. Balance & Landing
3. Strength
4. Agility

If you, your child or a teammate experiences a knee or ankle injury - consult one of our expert sports physiotherapists.
We now offer “urgent acute sports injury” appointments.

Clinical Pilates v Exercise Pilates: What’s the Real Difference?
 
Not all Pilates is created equal. While Clinical Pilates and Exercise (or Fitness) Pilates share the same foundations, their purpose, supervision, and outcomes are very different.
 
Clinical Pilates
Clinical Pilates is rehabilitation with purpose.
Led by experienced physiotherapists, it begins with a detailed assessment and delivers a tailored program designed to treat injury, manage pain, improve movement, and support recovery after surgery or pregnancy.
 
Best for: Injury recovery, chronic pain, post-surgery rehab, pregnancy/post-partum care, pelvic floor strengthening, and long-term movement issues.
 
Exercise (Fitness) Pilates
Exercise Pilates is about general fitness and feeling good.
Run by certified Pilates instructors, these classes are usually group-based and follow a similar routine for everyone. The focus is on core strength, flexibility, posture, and overall wellbeing.
 
Best for: Healthy, injury-free individuals wanting a great workout and improved strength.
 
Same Pilates principles. Very different outcomes.
Choose the one that suits your body—and your goals.

Clinical Pilates “COREFIT” @ Elite Physio

At Elite Physio, our COREFIT program is our version of Clinical Pilates—designed to bridge the gap between rehabilitation and long-term strength.
 
* Run by experienced physiotherapists
* Small group classes,
* Individually tailored programs
 
Whether you’re recovering from injury, managing ongoing pain, or wanting to move better and feel stronger, COREFIT provides a safe, structured, and progressive approach to exercise.

*Private health rebates available.

Call us 89418555 to book your initial assessment and start your Clinical Pilates journey.
