Netball: Quick Passing

Maintain possession with quick, direct passing. Develop your players passing technique and their movement to receive again.

• The red players around the outside square have a ball each and move anti-clockwise around the box.
• Red players must make a pass inside to the blue players when they are on a corner and receive the return pass when they reach the half way point down the line.
• They then play another one-two pass receiving the return pass on the corner of the square.

Have two lines of players both stood behind a cone on the edge of the first third.

The red player starts with the ball. The blue player sprints to the cone on the baseline and receives the diagonal overhead pass from the red player.

Once they have received the ball the blue player then passes the ball to the next player in their team before sprinting the back of their line.

The drill repeats the other way round (blue passing to red). Drill continues in this way.

Split your group into 8s (2 balls are needed for this pass and move exercise).

The balls start on opposite corners and are passed clockwise. Each worker, after having passed the ball, swaps places with the player across the square that passed the ball at the same time.

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.
