I have a mixed team of 9 yr olds. Some who have never played and others who have played 3 terms and are good at anticipating, finding space etc etc. As we need to rotate positions each quarter, some quarters with combinations do really well with free flowing passes. Other quarters with different combinations, the midcourt movement is like bees to a honey pot. Any suggestions re how to encourage the whole team to find space, anticipate moves, work as a team and not run after the ball (small ask!) Thnx
I am, in exactly the same circumstance and all I can do is try and spread my strong players so I have at least one in each third and am trying to get other girls to move. At least you can still have some movement this way and hopefully the new ones will start to follow the play shown by the others.

I agree spreading th stronger or more experience players so you have one in each third is helpfull. I also think that teaching the basis give and go system helps where the player passes the ball and then runs to the position that the person who recieves the ball has left. This also involves the need for teaching a simple system of movement and poosibly allocating lanes or areas of the court for each postion to play. Good luck

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.
