Netball is all about getting free, losing your marker or making clearing runs so they can receive the ball without it being intercepted.
There's plenty of ways to lose and outwit a defender including:
Dodge, Straight Sprint, Roll Off, Change of Direction, Change of Speed and even body angles.
By following the getting free drills and videos you can develop your team's ability to dodge and move around a defender - helping them to create space to receive the pass and progress up court.
