Hi Trisha,
Court awareness generally comes from repetition and experience. One thing that I have found helps is consistency, try and set up the same each time and have set shots and passes that you use.
The more they practice these it will become autonomous and more attention (awareness) can be directed externally (court). For example, making it easier to react better to certain opponents styles.
Here is a fun drill to develop team cohesion and external awareness.
Hope this helps!
