How many team officials can a netball team have, and who must be among them?

Under Rule 3 of the Rules of Netball 2024, a team may have up to five team officials. They must include a coach and at least one primary care person (someone qualified to diagnose and treat injury or illness). A sixth team official is allowed only if that role is a team doctor.

Team officials and any players not on court are located at the team bench, which each team is allocated. A team official from either team may ask to observe the umpires' toss. Lower-level competitions may have fewer officials than this, in which case one person can take on several duties.
