Netball: Definite Drive

Develop and progress your players attacking play, focusing on giving the ball carrier a number of options up and down the court under pressure and in a competitive environment.

Develop your players movement skills in order for them to get in front of their defender and help your team maintain progression.

Be clever with your movement to penetrate the space and maximise your attacks.

Get your players all on the same page so their movement is decisive, direct and threatening with every attack.

1. In turn the worker feeds the ball to the feeder and then drives to the spot.
2. The worker then changes direction and drives on to the fast and flat pass from the feeder.
3. Finally the worker passes to the next player in the opposite line who then passes to the feeder and repeats the exercise in opposite direction.

Split players into pairs with one ball between them.

The worker (player 2) drives from the centre to a cone and then back to the centre again to receive the ball from the feeder (player 1).

The worker then passes back to the feeder and repeats. Each worker repeats this 10 times before changing over.

Players take it in turns to run through the defender's areas as pairs. The player without the ball leads into the space. Working together they should try to pass and move, maintaining possession of the ball, from one side to the other.

If players successfully pass and support each other to the other side without losing the ball they pass the ball to the next pair and then join the back of the queue.

If the ball is intercepted though the pair who lost the ball become the defenders and the original defenders take the runner's place at the back of the queue.

Minimum of 8 players with 2 balls (balls start on diagonally opposite corners).

Players 1 and 3 run to their left towards the player that is going to feed the ball to them.

Before reaching the player who is going to feed them the ball the receiving player should make a sharp dash towards the centre to receive the ball, accelerating as they do so.

Once the ball is received the player passes it to the player diagonally across from where they started and follows their pass and joins the back of the queue.

The drill continues.
