- 2 designated taggers each have a coloured bib and a soft foam ball. - The taggers stand in the middle of the area. - The other students spread out in the area and run around. Taggers aim an underarm throw at students. - The aim of the game is for the non taggers to try and catch the ball from taggers under pressure whilst moving. - If the ball is dropped, the student has to throw and catch to themselves a number of times (throws must be above the head) for example 10 times. - When throws are completed, the student is free to run again.
-Eyes are focused on the ball throughout the catch. -Hands move to meet the ball. -Hands and fingers positioned correctly to catch the ball. -Catch and control the ball with hands only. -Elbows bend to absorb force of the ball.

A ready-to-run Halloween session for High 5 and junior netball. Real drills in spooky costume, with a warm-up, a technical block, a decision-making game and a finish.
Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
