I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
Hi, I have a young girl that tries hard at training and playing. but the other girls will not pass her the ball.she came be in the right position and calls out but they go for the person with someone on them. what do i do. Donna Vic Aus
It this shown as being ball side on is this the same thing think I have got confused?
Any ideas on how to teach a senior team to cherish and convert turnover balls they create?
I have 10 players and need to roster them equally, does anyone have a formula
What is the best way to rotate my 8 players. I currently bench one player every quarter.
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?
The girls I am coaching have never played before and are aged 6 to 7 years, I really need some ideas to teach them the positions of the court - any tips or drills anyone can recommend?
How can I turn these tips into possessions, is it footwork being too slow to actually get onto the ball. or what?? Most of the tips are in defence area and centre. Love some feedback Janine
How do you deal with a GD and GK double marking a shooter from front and behind? The shooter unfortunately does not have much of a gap to shot the ball.Also how do you deal with a defender who constant,y marks you facing you with practically a 1 inch gap between you and her? Especially in the semi circle?Thanks
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
Well today me and 2 other coaches are going to be coaching our under 11s team but we seem to be running out of drills to coach them, and where wondering if anyone could give us any tips or good and powerful drills to give us?
I need to strengthen the positioning of my defenders
i need to know some techniques when marking a player in netball.
My associate coach and I disagree on whether U/10s should play different positions or focus/settle on one, maybe two. I don't want to put the girls in a box at such a young age but I also don't want a Jack of all Trades situation. They are still developing so much that I feel I'll be doing them a disservice by just putting them in the same position every week. The assistant coach says if we move them around we're not going to do as well but that is where the participation vs performance comes in for me. Surely at this age development is more important than winning?No coach likes to lose but I don't want to win at the expense of them experiencing different positions. What do you guys suggest? Thanks in advance! A Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

Hi,I coach an U17 - Div 2 team, very strong team of girls.I want to introduce zone defence into our play. Can anyone please recommend some drills, or explain how zoning works or any advise or layouts would be great.Thanks!
Hi, i am predominantly a U12yrs coach but i want to transition in to coaching the high school girls. I love all these drills and session plans and have found them very helpful, but i am looking now for information on strategies used in netball eg/strategic positioning of players when changing from attacking to suddenly defending after a turnover, or when should the GA drop back . when to use a zone defence or side-on defence. All these questions that aren't covered by drills. Is there somewhere to get this info or is it just learn as u go. Thank you
I'm coaching u/10's and have an excellent A team, but the B team have learners who haven't been playing netball so long. Does anyone have one or two basic activities, easy to understand (for them) which I can drill them with for passing, defending and getting free, as well as something for the shooters. They are always all over the place (we do practice channels) and really struggle to get free - they run a bit and then just stop to wait for the ball. Anything, even just some advice would be appreciated! :)
How do I break a zone defence, set up over our defence transverse line and dropping back into the centre third?
