Teaching players who have never played
I am about to start coaching a team of 8 yr olds who have never played. Any tips or books on how to start teaching them the rules and skills of the game ?
Hello Amanda,
Looking through previously answered questions I found this one which is fairly similar to your situation:
Fiona, who answered this question, suggested playing games that involve players running to different positions on the court when you call them out. This will help them to learn the positions and areas of the court.
Here's a selection of drills which might help and are related to positions. You can search for other drills using the search bar (top right).
Hope this helps and good luck!

PS. The warm up drills section of the site has lots of fun games for players - great if you need some extra game ideas for your 8 year olds.

I've really enjoyed using Sportplan and my team of 14 year olds went through the season with only 1 loss and are playing in the final on Saturday! A great resource thank you.
