I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
How do you get under 11's to come forward for the ball and not to call for the ball when they have a player on them?
Any ideas on how to rotate nine players in an under fifteen years team (none of whom want to play defence)??
My daughter has just started playing netball what are some good one on one skills for me to do with her? She is 11.
How do I get one of my players to hold the ball longer? She has awesome speed and stamina on the court but she doesn't slow down to throw the ball. She is an adult. What can I do to help her?
I have a girl who never knows which foot she has landed on and then throws awkwardly rather than foot fault.
My shooters tend to bunch up in the goal area or pass 5-10 times around the goal area to get closer to the goals without success. Do you have any ideas on how to better use footwork in the goal area?
I have a player who always turns or steps aside from catching the ball so never catches it, any advice on how to stop this so the catching Improves ?
Help, dad thrown in the deep end - what basic attacking strategies do you use for 11 years olds? They have great skill and have played since they were 5 years old, but still run around like headless chickens, everyone calling for the ball and getting in each other's way. Is there a method to this madness I can teach? Some teams look like they know who is going to pass to who and the ball gets from one end to the other fluidly. Impart your netball wisdom on me, oh great netball coaches! Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

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?
I coach a year 6 team, half of the girls are quite competitive and gave played together for a few years. I have two girls who are playing their second year with my team and I am struggling progressing these girls... They both don't seem to have any idea on court for it being their second year.. There is only so much I can do in an hour training session when I have to accomodate the rest of the team.. Any suggestions on what I should do with these two girls? I have provided them with printed information on positions and court placement for "study".. Should I put some responsibility back on the parents?
How to do a roster to rotate 10 netball players
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
Help me please, I am coaching 11 yrs and have one member of my team who is making nasty comments towards most of my other team members, before I am forced to raise this issue with her parent (who is never in attendance, only drop off and pick up, and I dont think she would be the easiest parent to deal with either) I am hoping someone can give me some ideas on how to deal with this, should I ask her to sit out or should I try to include her more to force a better relationship, when I have asked her if we can make an effort to play as a team she is clearly telling me, Its not her fault and that she is reacting to others, but i know this is not true, I dont think she will except she is doing anything wrong, if fact she is my biggest trouble maker when it comes to talking, not litening and being disrespectful, to me her team and once even an umpire (at training) HELP PLEASE its upsetting my girls %3A(
How long do you think 11 to 15 year olds can train for in one session before not gaining any benefit. I was thinking 1hour to 1.5 at the max.I have a wide range of ages in my team this year and want to make sure that the older girls are being challenged enough and the younger ones aren't over doing it.
Hi, I have a team of 11 year olds with 8 in the team, is there a fair way of substituting fairly so they all get equal court time. I do not want any arguments with parents.ThanksDi
GOOD DAY. CAN SOMEONE KINDLY HELP ME WITH THE EXACT HEIGHT OF THE NETBALL POLE AND IF IT DIFFERS IN HEIGHT FOR CERTAIN AGES.THANKS IN ADVANCE.
I coach a girls netball team that is predominantly aged 11 years. I am looking for some really good team building drills â are you able to help/provide this? Also, we have some problem girls who are always trying to get out of doing practice and I wish to make it look so much fun that it would feel like a punishment for them to be sitting on the side watching. Can you provide some ideas?
How can I teach my 8 year olds to spread out when bringing the ball down the court?
