Hi Lindsey, to effectively link your sessions and cover both attacking and defending aspects, here are some session plans that might help:

Linking Passing - Connect Defence to Offence: This session plan focuses on transitioning from defense to offense, which is crucial for a balanced game strategy. 1 View Session Plan.
Limit Attacking Options through Zone Defence: This plan is great for understanding how to restrict the opposing team's attacking options through effective zone defense. 2 View Session Plan.
Developing Attacking Units to Increase Success on Goal: Focuses on building strong attacking units to improve goal-scoring opportunities. 3 View Session Plan.
Defending Principle - Pressure to Intercept: Enhances defensive skills by applying pressure to intercept passes. 4 View Session Plan.

These sessions should provide a comprehensive approach to both attacking and defending in netball. Good luck with your Level 2!
