In one third of the court split your players into groups of 9 with one ball.
Coach starts the practice.
Each player at the front of the line (in turn) moves out to then drive onto the flat fast pass. They then pass the ball on to the next player in the sequence.
Each player after having passed the ball goes to the back of their original line.
Definite drive (no dithering)!
Encourage players to call their team mates name to help players know where the ball needs to go.
Players need to show a definite drive towards the ball by pushing off their outside foot to change direction and move onto the ball.
Players need to use their body - especially their feet, hips and shoulders. This will help to lose a defender.
This practice is a ideal for before a match as it really gets players thinking.

A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
The new season is the perfect moment to set the expectation that every junior player tries every bib. Here is why rotation builds better netballers, how to organise it fairly, and what to say when a player or parent wants "their" position.
Most club teams defend one-on-one and nothing else. A well-drilled zone gives you a second option, and against the right opponent it is the difference between chasing and controlling.
