Netball: Shooting - group practice

Having the shooters to put the points on the board is vital. Get your players in the attacking circle full of confidence with this shooting session.

Player 2 moves into the circle to receive a ball from blue player 1.

Blue 1 immediately moves in to take up the rebound position with the defender (green player 1) and battle for the rebound.

• If the shot is put up from A, the rebound position is the area marked by the semi circle.
• The player must guard this area from her opponent.

Three players perform this drill with two balls.

Two players stand by the post with a ball each, while the third player is stood outside of the circle.

Player one shoots and then collects the ball, before player two passes the ball to the players who is outside of the circle, who then returns the ball to player two outside of the circle.

Player three then moves in towards the post to receive the final pass in the sequence, and shoots before collecting the ball.

Player one in the mean time, starts the same pass sequence with player two, who is now the new player outside the circle, and the drill continues in this fashion.

One player, the feeder, starts on the edge of the circle. The other player, the worker (number 1 in the diagram) runs around one of the cones set out on the edge of the shooting circle, then drives back into the circle to receive the ball before making the shot.

Shooter collects the successful shot or rebound, passes back out to the feeder and repeats with an alternative cone.
