Netball: Landing Shuttles

Develop your players footwork in order to land correctly, whilst also looking at the skill of turning in the air to shut out the defender.

Go back to basics and develop your team?s footwork, helping them to land effectively and make the next pass quickly!

Develop your player's ability to execute quick and efficient footwork, not only when receiving the ball, but also when creating and penetrating space.

Develop your player's footwork and movement skills in order to successfully get free from the defence and maintain possession.

The starting player passes the ball to the player moving towards the ball from the opposite group.

The receiving player who catches the ball should land on 1 foot, then land on their 2nd foot and pivot onto their 1st landing foot to pass the ball back the player on the side where they started.

Exercise reverses in the other direction.

This is a very simple relay practice with the emphasise on the player running in catching the ball and landing on one foot and then the next. The players are required to say ICE with first foot touching the floor and Cream when the2nd foot hits the ground. then pass and follow the ball to the other side.

Split your players into 4s or more with 2 balls. Both blue players start with a ball.

1. The blue players both throw the ball to the Red players who in turn return the ball.
   
   
2. After returning the ball the red players swap places.
   
   
3. Repeat once more.

Time the cross-over moves so that players receive on the move.

Red player 1 passes the ball to Blue player 1, and then runs forward to receive a return pass from Blue player 1. Red player 1 passes to Blue player 2, receives return pass and then passes the ball to Red player 2, and joins line behind Red player 2.
