TOP ANSWER
Janet Coach, Australia

Basic description is: Stage 1 - mark player to limit ball receiving options/attempt intercept; Stage 2 - once ball received use hands over/up to limit passing opportunities; Stage 3 - block/delay player from moving down court for next feed/set up. Stage 3 is often forgotten by lazy/inexperienced players and is integral in preventing set ups and/or a second passing option for the opposition.
