What is a "net"?
A net in sports like tennis, badminton, and volleyball is a piece of equipment that divides the playing area into two sides. It is typically made of strong, woven material, such as nylon, and is stretched across the center of the court or playing field. The net is set at a specific height, depending on the sport, and players aim to hit the ball or shuttlecock over the net to score points.
