3 Attackers must move the ball through each of the 4 zones in any order to get the ball from the baseline to half way, while defenders can only defend the one zone they are allocated. NB: If attacker steps, they must restart at baseline. If defender contact or obstructs, they are out of play in their zone until penalty pass is released.
Attackers learn the value of communication, spacial awareness vs. crowding & reoffering & correct drive angles. Defenders learn the value of isolation, dictating, body angle/respositioning & anticipation and protecting space with more than one attacker present.

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.
