The attackers need to sprint and change direction. 6 players stand Indian file. The player with the ball faces the line.
The first player leads in one direction, 2nd player immediately runs in the opposite direction. One player receives the ball with the other one doubling back to receive the next pass.
After both runners have received the ball they should pass back to the thrower. Repeat with two new attackers.
Progression: You can add a defender at the front of the line who can mark either attacker.
The thrower should pass to the free attacker.
You could also add a condition that the attackers must make 4 passers between them (inside the area) before they can pass back to the feeder.

A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
The new season is the perfect moment to set the expectation that every junior player tries every bib. Here is why rotation builds better netballers, how to organise it fairly, and what to say when a player or parent wants "their" position.
Most club teams defend one-on-one and nothing else. A well-drilled zone gives you a second option, and against the right opponent it is the difference between chasing and controlling.
