Netball: Overload Set-Up

Develop more complex centre pass set plays to instil confidence into your players and maintain possession to goal.

• The WA and GA will start in a staggered position, with one player (GA in this example) on the line and the other (WA) positioned off the line 
• Both the WA and GA will offer for the centre pass 
• WA will receives the ball from the C
• GA recognises that they did not receive first ball and will clear out to get down court into the circle
• The GS will then exit from the top of the circle to receive the ball from the WA
• The GA will time their movement to enter the circle and receive the ball from the GS allowing her to put up a shot

• The WA and GA will start in a staggered position, with one player (WA in this example) on the line and the other (GA) positioned off the line
• Both the WA and GA will offer for the centre pass
• WA will receives the ball from the C
• GA recognises that they did not receive first ball and will clear out to get down court into the circle
• Once the C has passed the ball to the WA they will then drive deep down court to receive the second phase ball from back from the WA
• The GS will hold their space until the C has received the ball and is ready to pass in - they will then drive onto the ball, driving towards the edge of the circle to leave space for the GA
• The GA should be able to receive the ball from the GS under the post 

• The WA and GA will start in a staggered position, with one player (GA in this example) on the line and the other (WA) positioned off the line
• Both the WA and GA will offer for the centre pass
• GA receives the ball from the C
• WA recognises that they did not receive first ball and drives deep down court to receive the second phase ball from the GA
• The GS will hold their space until the WA has released the ball and the GS will receive the ball into space
• The GS will put the ball up for a shot 

It is common that the defending C will drop back and double mark either the WA or GA, if that happens... 

• The WA has been double marked and therefore will pull wide taking both the WD and C with her - this has now left room for the GA 
• Both the WA and GA will drive out and offer for the ball, however the GA will receive the ball from the C
• As the defending C has been pulled wide, it will allow the atttacking C the central channel to drive hard and get the ball from the GA at the top of the circle 
• The GS will be holding their front space and receive the ball from the C ready to put up a shot
