I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
Hello, I'm just trying to do a lesson plan for twenty minutes for netball for 8/9 year olds with very basic skills and not much history in playing netball. Im not really sure what route to take to ensure they can do the task but still fun, and which element of netball would be best to start with? any suggestions much appreciated!!
In an hour and a half training session, I want to cover 2 to 3 defence drills, 2-3 attacking drills and also have stations set up for goalies, mid court and defence to do a drill specific to each. How long should I allow for each drill, and still fit in the hour and a half training?
should 6-8 year olds be doing dynamic stretching during warm up and cool down stages? If so has anyone got any ideas or techniques?

Can someone run through the best warm up stretches to do and should they be done prior to or after cardio warm up? This is for kids netball (10 and under)
What type of games and activities that are skill based would be ideal for teaching 6 year olds netball?
i have been set a task to come up with a 6 week training program for a netball player, with the main aim to increase their endurance levels. i have planned for 3 sessions per week resulting in 18 sessions all together and i was wondering what sort of drills are appropriate to use so that there is a noticeable increase in endurance levels without having to make the player just literally run around for 40 mins a session. please help??
Hi all, My daughter is about to start coaching for the first time and it's expected she'll have a group of 10 years olds in C or D grade. I'm struggling to remember what her capabilities were at that age and she's looking for some suggestions for drills to start off with until she gets a handle on where they're at. Is anyone currently working with kids around that age/ability bracket? Does anyone know if any of the weekly drills are aimed at beginners/introductory levels? From the ones I'm seen, they're aimed at an intermediate level so I'm assuming some of the games would be OK, but most of the drills would be beyond their capability.Thanks in advance.

Hi im coaching the grade 1 netball team this year. Its my first time coaching so i just want some tips on how to start with practice. Some easy drills and things to do with them to make it fun and so they can learn.Thank youLindie
Hi,We're halfway through the competition and our team was undefeated. Secretly we were already thinking of playing in the finals. We've just learned that our District has upgraded us to the next higher grade. We'll be at such a disadvantage not knowing any of the teams. Also all the teams in our previous grade had byes and so we've played 5 games and had 1 bye. The teams in our new grade have had no byes and have played 6 games. So the next team up (also undefeated) has 18 points but we have 15 points. Seems an unfair advantage to me. Is there a way to adjust for the bye we've had?Lastly, our next game is against the team that is at the top of the ladder. What can we do to be as best prepared as we can be? Many thanks in advance!
A am a new coach of a year 6 team. I have two girls that did not play netball last year and their level of play is not up to the rest of the team. I want to encourage them but they are either very slow and/or disinterested. When the whistle is blown it seem to take them ages to move of the line for a centre pass. The other girls are long gone. How can I light a fire and get them moving quickly? Thanks!
i'm doing netball coaching as one of my practicals for GCSE PE and ive set myself a few goals such as to improve my confidence to ensure girls enjoy my sessions but what else could I put?
cannot seem to get some players to stand still or not pick up landing feet when they get the ball. Blowing them for stepping normally get them into telling me about all the mistake everyone else is makings
