Do you have any good drills to help prevent contact?

If you're meaning e.g. a circle defence defending a shooter who is driving along the back line with a feeder with the ball on the circle edge? Ensure that the defence stays up with the shooter but brings her outside arm (the one not next to the shooter) around to bat the ball down and gather. In other words she closes her body around the front of the shooter so that she isn't an option for a pass. Defences must show umpires that there is no contact, otherwise they will presume there is when both defence and shooter are striving front on for a ball. This would be the case if the defence drives to the edge of the circle with the shooter and put out both hands to intercept across the shooters body. They would be pulled up for contact. I hope this helps you.
