Netball: 5 Point Interception

Develop your player's defensive ability, allowing them to practice their 3 stages of defence in order to force errors and successfully obtain interceptions.

Feeder on the centre circle, 2 attackers on the third line (~5m apart) with the defender stood behind in between them.

2 feeders positioned on the transverse line at each side.

Feeder can pass to either attacker and the defender will go for the intercept. Whoever gets the ball then passes to the feeder and the attacker that the ball was thrown to runs back towards the edge of the circle with the defender.

The feeder has the option of passing directly to the attacker or passing to the feeder on the same side as the attacker, who can then pass to the attacker.

Defender will go for the intercept of whichever pass is made to the attacker.

Two feeders stand in middle of the court, either side of the center circle.

The attacking player passes the ball out to the feeder and then runs out, looking for the return pass. The defender must react and look to push the attacker wide and/or intercept the ball.

Around the circle to make intercepts relevant for a GK.

Feeder 3-4m from the top of the circle, other 2 feeders in line with the top of the circle but out to the side.

Both attackers and the defender start in the circle.

Feeder passes to one attacker, defender intercepts. Ball back to feeder who can pass out to the side or to the same attacker.

If ball goes out to the side they pass in to the attacker. Defender goes for the intercept of any pass to the attacker.

The player at one end starts by passing to the 1st attacking player.

That attacking player then has to try and pass the ball to the 2nd attacking player.

This continues until the final attacking player has passed the ball to the 2nd static player at the other end of the court.

After which the player in the middle reverse rolls and the practice repeats in the opposite direction.
