Netball: Reactions off a Wall

I am currently coaching a senior college team and I have found Sportplan...

Kiri, Coach

DESCRIPTION

Get into pairs, with a ball each and find a space on a wall
Both players will pass their ball at the wall at the same time
They will then catch their partners ball - so the balls have switched

COACHING POINTS

Use a variety of passes to challenge your partner
Ensure you pass the ball hard at the wall so it will reach your partner
Try to aim the ball centrally, or past central, to allow the ball to switch sides
You can get your players to work for a set time, number or reps or challenge them to do as many passes as possible without a dropped ball

Reverse Hand Control:

Get into pairs with one ball
Stand approximately 2 meters apart
One player will be the worker and the other the feeder
The feeder will pass the ball in at different positions to the worker
The worker will use their reverse hand to control the ball and pass it back to the feeder
