Netball: Wall Drills - Partner

I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching...

Donna, Coach

DESCRIPTION

Good fundamental skills in partners.

Any number of player can take part, one ball between 2 and wall space.

You can get creative with rotational ideas but here are some:

1. Right hand wall taps.

2. Left hand wall taps

3. Overhead with two hands

4. Chest passes

5. Figure of 8 and 2 passes

6. Around your partner

7. Pass behind your back

COACHING POINTS

Be sure to set limits i.e. time or repetition of task.

You could make it competitive 'first team to finish 20 reps'.

Strive for accuracy.

Driving Onto The Ball

Set up: one third space, one ball between two, cones (one between two).

One partner to be standing on the third line with the ball facing the baseline.

Other partner starts on the baseline, drives out to cone (about halfway down the third), turns and drives back to the baseline. Turns again and accelerates to partner who is holding the ball.

Play should recieve pass before the cone.

Movement

2 ball skill advanced

2 players 2 balls 1 ball should only be bounce passed and the other ball should be chest passed through the air.

Ball skills

Ball catching skills and quick movement

Two players stand two meters apart.

The receiver turns their back on the feeder and awaits their instructions. When the feeder gives the command, shouting left, right, above (their head) or center (into the player's body) the receiver must quickly turn around and be prepared to receive the ball, where necessary taking two to three small but fast steps to the side in preparation for receiving the pass.
