Hi Natalie,
Someone asked this question just the other day!
This is always a tricky one and some of my players also struggle to get started! The first thing is to make sure that players are well warmed up ahead of the game; make sure the warm up is varied with both agility and ball skill components. I found that dedicating more time to half court and match-related games during the warm up helped my team get in the right frame of mind from the off-set. I`ve attached one of our favourite drills for you!

10 passes to score
DESCRIPTION
1 team starts with the ball and tries and make 10 consecutive passes. The other team can send 1 or 2 players across to try and win the ball for their side. If the other team wins possession back for their team the roles reverse in other area (10 passes scores a point.)
