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 way for a Goal Keeper to defend, especially within the semi circle. ? Should they watch the ball then try to intercept any ball going to Goal Shooter or just mark up their partner?Submitted via email
I have been told that it is ok for WD to use their far arm, palm facing outwards across the WA, yet other coaches have questioned it as obstruction ?
My defenders (GD, GK) are having problems with the 3 feet distance. They are either too close or too far away and they will not jump. Please could you suggest any practices that will help my players
My WD asked me how she defend better around the circle does anyone have any ideas that may help with this...thanks
I have taught my players how to mark generally through shadowing and t-marking but would like to show the GK and GD how to defend the circle, working together.Does anyone have any suggestions?
Hi, Would like some advice as to how to defend or intercept bounce passes in the circle. Thank you. Anne
My GD runs all over the place and when needed in the circle she is too slow in getting there. She plays a good interception game in the middle field. How and to where do I confine her on the court so that she is able to defend in the circle as well?
How do I teach a GK to defend in the circle and change up the way she defends based on her partner?
How do you teach GK and GD to talk? I know I need to teach my 14yr olds to communicate in the circle, but what exactly should they be saying? And how do I teach them to switch partners in the circle when they need to rather than getting caught out focussing too much on one player? They're an awesome pair, and I think if we can address these two issues, they will be scary good. Thanks for any help. Heather.
What are the best drills to train GS and GA timely movement in the attacking circle?
What is the best way to intercept a lob out in mid court and also goal circle?
What is the best way to defend the shooter who after faking a shot turns to WA or c on circle edge, passes out, takes a step nearer to the post and receives return pass either once or several times?
I have always been a one on one GK when defending and recently I have been told to look at zone defence. I am just wondering the easiest way to learn zone defence or any drills that may help
Hi Everyone I've been playing defence for a long time now, and only last Saturday did I start to play centre. It was during our warm up on that day, (before our game) when my coach told me that I would be playing centre. I agreed to do it, but the problem was that the other team was a really good and very fit team. I struggled a lot durig the game, and i felt like i was dying the whole time! Also because I had never played centre before I didn't know how to feed the ball into the goal circle. I also don't know how to defend on the goal circle. Also what is the centres main job?Thanks so much for all the help! 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?
