In this extended two hour training plan we cover a host of exciting skills to improve how your team use the full court, support one another and bring the ball down court.
Timing of runs - Improve how your players catch on the move, turn and pass
Backing up - Develop players' off ball movement to offer for the ball and prevent bunching
Set Plays - Speed the ball from the back line pass to the opponent's circle
This plan can easily be tailored to suit your needs. It's divided into five clear sections with 15 unique drills. You could comfortably coach it over the two hours, or even three consecutive sessions.
We start with a warm up of Anywheres (a great drill to get players on their toes). We then get develop how your players time their movement in relation to the play ahead of them with some small group passing exercises.
From here we progress the session by getting your players to offer for the ball - to ensure there's always a minimum of two offers from down the court.
Use this plan tonight to improve your team's through court play.

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.
The new season is the perfect moment to set the expectation that every junior player tries every bib. Here is why rotation builds better netballers, how to organise it fairly, and what to say when a player or parent wants "their" position.
Most club teams defend one-on-one and nothing else. A well-drilled zone gives you a second option, and against the right opponent it is the difference between chasing and controlling.
