This drill will help your players pass around a defender's 3ft mark by encouraging them to use different release points and angles.
Two feeders stand at opposite sides of a third with 2 workers in the middle who will change between being attack and defence. One feeder passes to the worker closest to them who becomes an attacker. The other worker becomes a defender and immediately puts their arms up to stop the pass from the attacker to the feeder at the other side.
Once the attacker has passed to the feeder the drill reverses and the workers in the middle swap attack/defence. The players work on an imaginary straight line, so they can't move out to get the pass around the defender.
2 sets of 12 passes for each attacker
Attackers should use a range of release points (left, right, and overhead), to pass around the defender.

No more 50/50 toss-ups. When simultaneous infringements occur, possession now goes to the team that last had the ball. Here's what it means for your coaching.
Train your defenders to win clean turnovers, not just disrupt. The difference between good defenders and great ones is taking the ball, not just touching it.
Netball is experiencing unprecedented growth, with record viewership, evolving rules, and professional leagues expanding worldwide. Here's what 2026 brings for our sport.
