Netball: Receive and return to the free player

A fundamental aspect of any netball game!! Feeding your shooting circle well could ultimately lead to success.

There are five players on the outside of the circle, with three balls between them, two attacking players and one defender inside the circle.

The players inside the circle have to move around the circle quickly, calling for the ball.

When they receive the pass they need to pass to a player outside the circle without a ball (not the same player who passed to them originally) without having the ball intercepted by the defender.

Five attackers, each with a ball, are positioned on the edge of the circle with two other attackers inside the circle.

The two ball-less players have to move around inside the circle with sharp movements, calling for the ball from the feeders and passing the ball back to the feeder.

Players set up two sets of lines which are facing one another.

The two lines which start without the ball both sprint into the middle of the area to receive the pass from the left. After receiving the ball they then pass it straight over and follow their pass.

The front players in the two lines which don't have a ball now both drive into the middle to receive the pass from the left and then throw the ball straight over and follow their pass.

The three attackers start at the transverse line and must make five passes before passing to shooters.

A further five passes must be made before a shot can be made.

The attackers should be aiming to receive the ball on the edge of the circle when they come to pass to shooters.
