Netball: Continuous Split Lead

Set up cones in a bow tie shape, with 2 cones on the third line, one halfway down the end third and 2 at the end of court, as shown in the diagram.

Have one player start on the middle cone with the ball, and the other players split at 2 opposite corners, the third line right corner and end line left corner.

Passing order:
Middle --> Bottom Right,
Middle runs to bottom left
Bottom right --> bottom left,
Bottom right runs to middle
Bottom left --> to middle
Repeat on other side, with the player in the middle becoming the starter for the opposite side.

Players work in pairs over varying distances depending on the pass type.

1. Each pair should stand opposite their partner.
2. Each pair are given a number. The first pair are 5, the following pair are 10 and so on, going up in denominations of 5.
3. Players have to make their allocated amount of passes. Once they have done that they shout 'bump' and swap places with the pair next to them with the higher number. They then start their passing again, but add 5 to their original number. The pair who were 'bumped' have to start again, subtracting 5 from their starting number.
4. The aim is to move up the group and have as high a number as possible. Work for 2-4 minutes, then stop the players to see if they have moved up or down.

minimum of 8 players set up in square grid as shown in picture Ball is passed round the square with players timing their move so that they run onto the ball Players should lead out to then change direction to receive the ball
