Hi Dianne,
This is a great drill to get the ball into the shooting circle as quickly as possible. It focusses on getting your players driving onto the circle edge, ready to feed into the circle.
You can find loads of similar drills to this with the Netball drills category on the Sportplan site.
Hope this helps.

End drill â Feeding into circle Set up: four corners of 2-3 players, 1 ball, goal third end of court. Aim for the two groups of players on transverse line to hit the circle edge and feed ball into the circle to a shooter with a defending player. Bottom left corner (A) player drives out along sideline. Receives a pass from the defending player in the circle. Player from top left corner (B) drives straight into the court to receive a pass from the sideline player. Player B passes back to player A and drives towards the circle edge where player A delivers a long ball to player B as close to the circle edge they can get. Player A joins line where player A started. Player from top right corner (C) drives to circle edge to help feed pass into player D who has driven from bottom right corner into the circle as shooter.
