I am coaching 9 and 10 year old girls who have played?

I am coaching 9 and 10 year old girls who have played little or no netball to date. Am I best to rotate their positions so they can experience them all or keep them in the same place for a while until they get used to it?

How to approach pre&early season with my U11girls?

I wondered if anyone could give me a rough order of what parts of the game I should focus on with my daughter's 10 year old team for their pre-season and early-season training? I'm tempted to talk to them about positional play but they don't have really firm positions yet so I don't want to confuse them. I've just taken on my daughter's 10 year old team. They are division three and many of the girls played for the first time last year. Their coaching last year was very light. I spent our first session last week working on straight leads and dodges, just simple running onto the ball and throwing in front of the player drills. We have 2 more training sessions before our first game...

Hi

I have a team of 8 10-11 year old girls.  5 of  them have great skill level and are very enthusiastic the other 3 are quite lazy and are not up the skill level of the others. I am finding it really quite hard at training to engage these 3 while not holding the others back. It is also hard to place them on game day without the others getting frustrated. Any ideas. HELP

Trying to stay a positive coach when parents are against you

I am coaching 10 & 11yr old girls for the 2nd year purely because no one else wanted to do it - I've never even played netball and this site helps me every week, invaluable and we see tangible results. 1st year we won comp and championship, this year came 2nd in comp, champ starts this Sat. Two of the girls have told me their mums are changing them from this school team to another club (the one that won) next year 'cause "the coaching's not good enough for their child". All this teaches their child is that if your team isn't winning, go to another - forget about loyalty. Sometimes it difficult to take this on the chin. Any advice?

How do I break a bad habit of bunching?

I have a low grade, 10 year old team (3 new players). I can not get the team out of the habit of bunching and standing with hands in the air. I have tried lots of things, some work, but they tend to revert back to bunching when the pressure is on. Can anyone suggest a simple solution.

Focusing 10 year olds

HI Peoples,I am helping with a team of 10 year old girls. They pickup various skills quite well but I noticed when we played another team the other day - the other team was very focused. No mucking about or getting distracted.Our team is hard to talk to them because they are constanly playing with balls, talking between each other etc.The question is how to get this disclipline in the team without being a tyrant?

Breaking the stepping habit

I have a team of older girls (16-17yo), several who have still not mastered their footwork. Most have developed this habit over the past few years and I need to fix it as soon as possible. I would be glad of any suggestions...

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
