Netball: Intercept the High Ball

Working in pairs, with one ball between two.

The player without the ball is the worker. They must drive forwards to the first cone immediately in front of them before running back to their starting point. From this position they should then drive out at a 45 degree angle to the cone either to the left or their right.

At this point the other player feeds a high pass for the player to jump and catch.

Repeat 5 times before changing over.

Split the group into minimum of 3 people with one ball per group.

Player 2 runs to the side to receive ball from player 1.

They then turn and feed the ball to player 3 (the next player waiting in line).

Player 3 feeds the ball back to player 1 as player 2 moves quickly through to try and intercept the pass.

4 Attackers with one ball stand on four corners of the square, they are not allowed to move from their cones.

To start with include 3 defenders. These players must move around the area trying to intercept passes from the attackers by driving into the space between the passer and the receiver.

If a defender attempts to intercept the ball and fails and is out of position as a result one of the other defenders should spot the gap and endeavour to cover the space.

Blue 2 moves to receive ball from Blue 1 and returns the ball to Blue 1, who immediately throws to White2. Blue2 attempts to intercept pass. When completed, reverse exercise to receive on the other side.Blue 1 moves out etc.
