How should i prepare myself for the semi finals? we are versing a team that is well matched and we have versed them before. we won, but only by 2 goals and apparently that team was having a bad day. i'm super nervous, and want to be ready for the game.what kind of training should i do at home? we don't have a lot of space outside and we don't have any equipment e.g ladders, cones etc. i so desperately want to win and get into the grand final. but i also have exams coming up, so i need to balance my time.thanks for your help!
Hi Ekeesha,
Firstly, congratulations in getting to the semi finals!
We have added a great new section called DIY Drills and I believe they would be perfect for you. These are drills you can do at home, as they require minimal equipment or assistance.
However, in general I would advise you to try to be confident in your own ability and your teams. You have played them before and won, which of course is a benefit - good day or bad. As you have played them before you will know how they play and can tackle this.
Also just practice your ball skills, for example passing, as in tight games (which it is likely going to be) it can be the difference between winning and losing.
Good luck, I wish you all the best.

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.
