This week's session is one for your goal scorers, your GA and GS, as we work on improving attacking movement in the circle - getting players to lose their markers and move to the post to cut down the distance for the shot!
The main philosophy for this session is to get your shooters to make life easy for themselves - when moving to lose their marker and receive the pass players should be thinking "How can I use my lead run to get closer to the post?" - making the shot as easy as possible.
What's in the session?
To improve lead running we start with a speed and agility pairs shooting exercise - designed to get your players warm while also giving them plenty of shooting practice. From this we then add defenders into the circle and see how effective your shooters are at making space (and how good your defenders are at cutting out the pass!)

July is the month that decides your season. Netball is not a steady jog - it is a string of short, sharp, repeated sprints with barely any recovery. Here is how to build a pre-season engine that still has legs in the final quarter.
The double play - pass, drive, receive it straight back - is the quickest way to slice through a settled defence. Elite coaches like West Coast Fever's Dan Ryan have made it a signature. Here is how to build the give-and-go into your team's attack.
Split circle defence is the system the top three NSL teams have built their identity around in 2026. The Goal Keeper and Goal Defence divide the circle into zones, switch in synchrony, and make every passing option look risky. Here is how to coach it.
