I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
Does anyone have any training tips on Channels?

How do I teach space/channelling down the court...to 10/11 year olds. thanks
Hi, I am a 13 year old girl who plays netball every Saturday. I have been playing netball as a centre since I was about 9 yrs old. When I moved teams I changed to GA cause they needed a GA. I had also been playing basketball so when I moved into GA I shot like a basketballer. I only just recently started trying to shoot like a netballer, but it is't really working. Our GS is usually the player that shoots most of our goals but she broke 2 fingers and is out for the finals. I need some advice to help me to be a better GA and step up a shoot lots of goals to see our team go into the grand final.I need help learning to shoot better but my coach is young and plays defence. p.s. I am the only other shooter in my team.
I coach a group of 10 girls (8 yrs old) in the grade above netta (we call it Sub-minis but same rules as netta) I rotate them 4 def 2 c 4 attack (eg 3/4 each or 1/2 if they are center) I am having problems teaching them spaceing and who to lead into which spot etc. After our game on the weekend I thought I'ld try a different tack (was a bit loathed to do this as they may take it too literal) but I am wanting to split the court into "zones" for each position as a guide for them eg Center gets the middle "track" right down the court WA one side GA the other etc. has anyone tried this, will it make it worse any further suggestions......?????
I am coaching a year six team with a friend and I have never coached before but I have played netball for many years. What sort of drills are suitable for them (they are about 11 and 12) which are not to complicated but also aren't to basic. Thanks in advance!!
HELP! How do I stop my 6yr old girls from bunching on the court? They are like bees to the honey.
I'm after some good channel drills for 11's to open age groups Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
I need a comprehensive drill for coaching channels. It's only a couple of players that don't get it (the centre and the GS/GA) but it is causing real disruption in games and forcing unecessary mistakes.
Does anyone have any drills or practices for groups of 10 or more that will help explain and develop an understanding of 'channels' and moving the ball into new space rather than keep everything down one side?
What is a good drill to get players to use all 3 channels and not bunch up?? Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
(I dont usually play WD,so i`m still getting used to the position.When defending the WA at the centre pass, should i be on the inside or the outside of my player on the line?). How do i defend on the goal circle and try and get intercepts?when should i leave my player and try and go for an intercept?
