Netball: Warm-up: Jogging with Rules

Jogging and footwork patterns.

Players jog around the court, preforming different footwork patterns along different sides can be any lines on the court, players do not have to run around the perimeter).

With older players allow the player at the front of the line to lead, the other players must follow their example. Regularly change the player at the front of the line.

Cone out a square, 5m x 5m, with 3 attacker's and 1 defender inside.

One of the attackers starts with a ball.

The attacker's aim is to get the ball to all 4 corners in any order without being tagged with the ball by the defender. They start again if they are tagged.

They can only move the ball by passing, they can't run with it.

You can swap the defender out if they make it to all 4 corners or wait until they have managed it a few times to progress.

Feeder 1 has the ball. Worker runs out towards a cone, changes direction and sprints to receive a pass from the feeder.

One team runs clockwise round the inside of the circle with the other team running anti-clockwise around the outside of the circle.

In this example the defenders are red, and the attackers are red.

When the coach shouts 'Jailbreak' the players inside the inner circle try to 'escape' to outside the 10m x 10m square (yellow cones).

The inside team scores a point for each 'jailbreaker' - swap over. If you have an odd number of players give the defenders the extra man.
