Improve your team's defensive abilities with this session, focusing on the closing down of the opposition and denying any space to the attacking players. With a number of competitive exercises, develop a decisive and dominant defence, getting your team to think of effective ways to halt the opposition in their tracks.
Turn your focus to improving your players' core skills as well, such as speed, decision making and reactions, so that they are fully prepared for their defensive duties on court. Build up their communication skills and help them understand how important teamwork is to maintaining a strong defence, by combining all the stages of defence.
Don't let any attacks slip through your defence!

A ready-to-run Halloween session for High 5 and junior netball. Real drills in spooky costume, with a warm-up, a technical block, a decision-making game and a finish.
Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
