In pairs, 1 ball, 1 cone. Set up 8m apart. Worker (C) starts with the ball. W throw a shoulder pass to feeder (GD) then follows the pass, sprinting round the back of the feeder. F drops the ball in front of her for W to pick up. Without footworking, W picks up the ball, turns and completes a jump pass, returning the ball to F.
Shoulder pass- elbow at a right angle, opposite foot stepping into the pass as the ball is released. The ball is 'pushed' straight through the air, with the arm and hand pointing in the direction of the ball to follow through. Jump pass- both feet shoulder width apart. Ball in both hands. Bring the ball above the head and as player is about to release the ball they jump up in the air. This allows the ball to gain more height. Ball tradjectory is flat or down depending on where the receiver is.

Footwork is the foundation of every skill in netball. This guide provides a clear explanation of the stepping rule, the mechanics of one-foot and two-foot landings, pivoting technique, and progressive drills to build footwork confidence from junior level upward.
The early 'shoot from anywhere' era is over. Smart teams now use data-driven decision models to decide when the two-pointer is worth it.
