Stand in a square or triangle (depending on how many people there are) with a line behind each point and one ball between all of you. The people at the front of the queue are the feeders (the attackers). These people will pass to each other in a random order. The people in the queue behind them (the defenders) must anticipate the pass and get in front of their feeder fast enough to intercept the ball. If the defenders get the ball, they immeadiately pass it to an attacker (feeder). If the attacker gets the ball, they pass it on. Once your intercept attempt has been made (whether successsful or not) you rejoin the back of your queue. Change the feeders every 2 minutes.
Tips: - Keep on your toes, bouncing on your spot to move off faster - Always watch the ball and the attacker who has it. Where are they looking? What foot do they step with? - Always be alert. Remember, the ball could go anywhere.

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.
