That old coaching cliche, ?the ball moves faster than the player?. The holy grail of netball is to play at speed and with accuracy so by developing the skills to pass with pace, straight to the target, your team will soon be controlling games and attacking with venom.
What?s in the Session?
Start the session off with a straightforward keep-ball practice to get the team warmed-up mentally and physically. The session then picks up intensity, working the players passing and receiving techniques whilst on the move. The emphasis is put upon their ability to pass and then move to offer a secondary and tertiary pass to maximise success at goal. Have fun with different practices and take on the role of the Gladiators running the gauntlet to get the ball from the defensive third to the attacking section.
Develop direct passing, concise movements and expert vision to turn defence into attack in a heartbeat.

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.
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.
