i like to do unpredictable passes with my girls. in pairs the feeder passes the ball to the worker using random passes and the worker has to catch the ball. this includes passes to the left/right, high, touch and go (they have to run up to the feeder who is holder the ball outstretched and then receive a lob pass or over head pass), a dropped ball. 2 mins later switch. i also always do centre pass breaks where they have to have the attacker on the outside and work to get ball side or away from their player, and then half court for 5 mins to get their head in the game.
thats my warm up.

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.
Most netball shooters know how to shoot. The difference at the top is who can shoot when it counts. A structured 10-minute pre-game mental routine is the most under-used performance tool in club netball - and it is the simplest to teach.
The best Goal Defences in the 2026 NSL season are intercepting more than ever. The reason is not raw athleticism. It is a deliberate shift from chasing the attacker to driving into the flight path of the ball. Here is how to coach it.
