Netball: Screening Drill

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON*

Delivering the ball midcourt through to the circle edge/shooters

Set up: 

Half court, two balls, 5+ players

1 player standing on base line, another player with the ball standing around the third line. 

Description:

Note: The video shows the drill being played out with 2 groups of players, you could just focus on one group i.e. 1 line, 1 V driver. The description is based on one group. 

Player on base line near shooting post, V drives towards court edge and receives a pass from the player in the line with the ball. 

Player who passes the ball drives directly to the circle edge in a straight line and receives a pass from the player who has driven out on the V. 

Player who had initially drove out now drives into a position under the hoop to receive a pass from their player and put a shot up. 

In a designated area, using lines or cones, the white team must attempt to dodge past each defending player.

Defending players can only use sideways movements in order to prevent this.

• Cones set up as a diamond, the two feeders opposite each other with a ball each.
• Two players in the middle as attackers/receivers.

• Attackers then split and drive to the outside cones.
• Feeders deliver a ball into the middle of the diamond.
• Attackers receive the pass from their right and move around the other attacker with
• ball in hand to deliver the ball to the opposite feeder.
