    And I've actually seen players pull haka-like faces, bark or shriek to distract.. all intimidation on my court.

    Wow... That's full on! We get the odd elbow, or push... but nothing like that!

    None of us actually knew about intimidation really. Most of us haven't played since primary or high school But like I said, still learning. Last week it was GK/D's hand up defending the goal is only allowed to move if the ball moves. Not if it's still. So many things to remember!

    At least I know the basics here... I played a season of basketball & was so unprepared!
