        Use a .png image to texture it. .png files support transparency, so youll be able to get a texture that you can see through.

        If you dont fancy making your own, i think theres a chainlink texture in the materials browser. If you apply this to a surface representing the net and then play about with the colors a bit you should be able to get something lookign pretty good.

        I fyou need to get a shadow, you might want to try following the instructions given here: http://www.sketchucation.com/forums/scf/viewtopic.php?f=22&t=6687
