A min. of 8 players standing in four corners of 1/3 of the court, one player with a ball.

Player 1 passes the ball into the space ahead of player 2 who runs on to receive the ball and passes it into the space ahead of player 3 etc. Players move on to next group after the pass.

Progressions:

When the teacher calls out a series of players' numbers they should run onto the court.

The players' whose numbers have just been called then play using normal netball rules until a goal is scored.

Starting on a backline, players move the ball through the court ending up with the shooter who puts a shot up.

Players should aim to pass the ball in the following order: GK, GD, WD, C, WA, GA, GS.

If WD had the ball for example, ideally the C should receive it, but WA also needs to offer in a different space for the ball, as well as the GD providing a back up offer if the C is not available.

There should always be a back-up offer from the player who has just received the ball, as well as a minimum of two offers from down the court.

Players should aim to time their movement so they are reading off each other.

1 team starts with the ball and tries and make 10 consecutive passes. The other team can send 1 or 2 players across to try and win the ball for their side.

If the other team wins possession back for their team the roles reverse in other area (10 passes scores a point.)
