Motivating my daughter to give her a shooting advantage?

Motivating my daughter to give her a shooting advantage?

I'm Elena from Fiji and I'm 48 years of age,I'm playing in the premier netball and my daughter playing for school and club games with me.I would love to teach my daughter about shooting because she likes shooting, the movement, the double pass,throw in,in and out in the circle. She is playing wd now.I know she is a good shooter if I teach her and some of her mates.How do I motivate her to do her best in the court?

All i can say here is it takes a lot of work to become a shooter, having to become one myself. The girls need to practice so they know THEIR style of shooting. There is no right or wrong way as long as it gets in the hoop. Then, once they know what they are doing, practice practice practice! 100 goals a day or more should keep them up to speed. It may be hard for them, but remind them that it takes a while to be good at something.

Hope this helps :-)

if she is keen to want to practise shooting, then there is heaps of info on the net.  but at the end of the day, all you can do is let her know you are available if she wants to practise, and let her know what she has to do to become a good shooter (Nicoles comment about 100 shots a day minimum is right on), and then let her come to you.  if she is keen and interested then she will be dragging you outside every moment she can.  if you are the one doing the dragging she will end up hating netball fullstop.

I would just like to add, that sometimes it is good to "drag" them into practice because sometimes the reason they don`t want to practice is because they don`t believe that they can do it. If you show them they can do it, then they suddenly become interested. This is experience from a daughter who I have had to teach that you can`t do everything perfectly right from the beginning. Everyone has to learn and to learn you have to have a go at it.
