The aim of the game is to score a goal before the person in front of you does to get them out. The final player left in the line wins.
The first player takes a shot from the top edge of the D if that shot goes in they pass the ball to the third player and join the back of the line. If they miss they must collect their ball and keep shooting.
The 2nd player however can start as soon as player 1 has taken their first shot. If player 2 gets a shot in before player 1 player 1 is out and must stand behind the red cone.
Player 1 passes the ball to the next player and then they can start.
Player 2 passes their ball to player four and joins the back of the line. As soon as player 3 has had their first shot player 4 can start.
The game continues until there is only one player left.
Encourage players to chase down the player in front of them.
Try to get players thinking about the shooting technique that they are using and whether its effective - if not how could they change it. They could have a look at others shooting techniques to see their success rate.
This practice you need to encourage the players to be NASTY not NICE. They are against all other players and should want to win, while still focusing on their technique.

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.
The backline pass is the most under-coached restart in netball. Get it right and you turn a dead ball into an attacking weapon before the opposition has reset.
July is the month that decides your season. Netball is not a steady jog - it is a string of short, sharp, repeated sprints with barely any recovery. Here is how to build a pre-season engine that still has legs in the final quarter.
