I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
What is the best set piece to win a center court and score a goal
My U14's could not get free on a Goal line throw in. I need practices for Goal Defenders (GD), wing defenders (WD) to get free to receive a pass from the goal Keeper (GK). With the second pass to the centre (C) or back to the GK. Thank you Angie. - submitted by email
Hi all, A question re combatting a centre third zone. What is the best way for players to combat a zone in mid court, and still move the ball into attack effectively, please?
What are some good defence drills for WD and GD when defending the opponents centre pass
Can someone please advise me on where can I locate sound information on court systems? Thanks. Wendy
Quick feeding into circle
Hi everyone!! I need some help.... Does anyone know any easy but fast side line or back line throw ins and who should take it. What about any drills for centre pass or to releasing the balls faster and not wait until the opposition player is with them.
We need to practice our goal line throw as an attacking thrown because ares is getting intercepted is there any pointers we can use
how to get into the goal circle when shooters are being zoned out
In the last quarter a contact penalty was reversed as 'not set'. Why was the centre who did not take the penalty from the correct place made to stand down?
We have lost a player due to injury and now have only 6. Any tips on best way to train and play with only 6 players
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.

What is the best way to stop crowding in junior netball? Particular drills?
I like the idea of teaching set plays to stop my girls swarming the ball, but wasn't sure what set plays to use! Are there any on this site or can anyone share their favourite easy ones for 8/9 yo's

I have conflicting advice - don't teach too many court strategies ie C to WA to GS to GA from a centre pass as I have been told that it stiffles their thinking. But without this I find they all crowd the space and at 10yrs old it seems very difficult to get them to understand about reading who is already in that space. Or perhaps I just aren't explaining that concept well?? And also when bringing the ball through the court from a goal line throw in at our GK end - same with strategies for that. Is it okay to say GK I won't you to throw it to GD, then GD to C and so on and this is where your area of the court is and I want you to stay in that area and try and get the ball there? Keeping the WD on the otherside and making sure she doesn't cross over. Confusing over how much at this age we teach court strategies or perhaps they are know as plays. Alice P
In a netball game, can you pass the netball backwards?
