An incredibly important aspect of any netball game is having the ability to successfully feed the shooting circle. In addition, the shooters must be aware of one another and able to balance the circle.
What's in the Session?
1) Accurate feeding into the circle - It is important that your players around the edge of the circle feed the shooters where they want the ball, into space and away from the defender.
2) Shooter movement - This is crucial for successful shooting circle, developing your players awareness of each other and reading off each others movement.
3) Movement around the circle - The players on the edge of the circle should keep moving on and off the circle edge, repositioning to be in a good place to feed the shooters.
4) Game situation - It is important that your players can put the drills learnt into practice. With certain conditions placed upon the game, it allows your players to be consciously aware of their own and others movement.

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.
