Increasing enthusiasm for 5-8yr olds

I am coaching a little net set go team (set tier) with ages 5-8. Usually I coach high school girls. A mum of one of the 7 yr olds just messaged me with this: "i was just wondering If you have any tips to help us get Miss S enthused about netball, she isn't enjoying it but wants to "give it more time" (her words)." We only have a half hour training session before we play as no one else will coach but this is the only time I can do training and there are players from another town so this is the best option for everyone. We play a couple of warm up drills/games and practice 1 skill ready for our game. I have covered the basics of passing and footwork so far. None of my team have ever played before, but 4 of them did the net set go - net tier last year. The girl has only played 2 games so far as we have had a bye. So far she has had a go at positions GK, GD, GS, GA, and WA. She is the tallest girl in the team and so tends to get a fair amount of the ball. Any ideas on what to suggest to this mum?

fill in coach for U13s w/- very basic skill - Where to start?

I have been asked to be a "fill in" coach this week for a group of under 13s that have very basic skills. The last time I "took" them, i went right back to basics, i did a really basic footwork drill and passing. I am not "normally" a coach, but play the game and have a great love for it, like all of you I assume! (I did coach juniors YEARS ago, but i cant remember them having such basic skills). It would take more than a couple of sessions to build up there skills and i just dont know where to start, as I don't know how many weeks i will be "filing in" for. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks.

Motivating an under 11s team

I'm a coach for an under 11s teams, at the moment I'm doing basic drills to make them understand footwork, marking and passing,etc. But I think they get bored doing those drill so how do I motivate them and get them to be enthusiastic and have fun about the sport but also they can learn?

Footwork Year 11's

what are some enaging games for developing footwork within my year 11 netball team. Prefer some exciting modified games over drill please, as basic drills tend to lead to disengament. thank you in advanced

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.
