Split your players into 2 teams 4v4 with one ball to start and mark out a square grid (20x20) by using cones.
The white players (catchers) pass the ball between themselves to try and tag the black player (escaped prisoner) with the ball.
The black player has to stay inside the grid, as do the white players. White players can only move when they do not have the ball.
Once the black players gets tagged they switch with the white player who tagged them.
Encourage players to communicate amongst themselves to catch the black player. The black player needs to use a change of pace and direction to make sure they do not get caught.
Players need to use tactics to capture the attacker.
The attacker needs to look for space where there are no defenders.

A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
The new season is the perfect moment to set the expectation that every junior player tries every bib. Here is why rotation builds better netballers, how to organise it fairly, and what to say when a player or parent wants "their" position.
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.
