Netball: Warm up - Cones

Equipment: 2 balls, half court space, 6+ players.

4 players stand as posts in a square as set out in video. Approximatly half way down 1/3 and near halfway.

2 other players, the workers, start on the baseline with the balls, one each. 

Workers pass ball out to first posts on a diagonal and follow the pass to recieve a short pass from first post.

Workers then pass straight on to the second posts and follow the pass. 

Second post players toss a high ball for the workers to catch. Workers stay put and the second post players run down court to recieve a long pass to the point of the first posts.

First posts move down and will become the workers in the next round. 

Have the players get into pairs.

One player starts with the ball and drops, places or throws the ball in random places around a semi circular area.

The other player in the pair stands around a metre opposite keeping a close eye on the ball. They need to react as quickly as possible to gather the ball either before it bounces or after only 1 bounce.

After 10, have the players swap over so that the passer is now reacting to the ball.

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON*

Set up: 1 ball, one third space, 1 feeder in between 2 lines of players in partners.

Feeder sends ball into open court space.

Players contest for the loose ball. Player who does not receive the ball becomes the defender. Defender gets three feet and arms over the ball.

Player with the ball passes back to feeder. 

The starting player passes the ball to the player moving towards the ball from the opposite group.

The receiving player who catches the ball should land on 1 foot, then land on their 2nd foot and pivot onto their 1st landing foot to pass the ball back the player on the side where they started.

Exercise reverses in the other direction.
