 Fast5 ( originally called Fastnet ) is a variation on the rules of netball designed to make games faster and more television @-@ friendly . The World Netball Series promotes it to raise the sport 's profile and attract more spectators and greater sponsorship . The game is much shorter , with each quarter lasting only six minutes and only a two @-@ minute break between quarters . The coaches can give instructions from the sideline during play , and unlimited substitutions are allowed . Like six @-@ per @-@ side indoor netball , attacking players may shoot two @-@ point goals from outside the shooting circle . Each team can separately nominate one " power play " quarter , in which each goal scored by that team is worth double points and the centre pass is taken by the team that conceded the goal .
