I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
When the goaler is being zoned out of the goal circle what is the best way for a her to get past the Zone and into the circle?
Hi, I am coaching a group of 10yr old girls who majority have never played netball before. Am I better to rotate them in positions or let them get use to the ones that I allocate them too.. Also what are some good drills that I can teach them Defence or Attack... I have taught them the basics of passing, shooting but need help on alot of other drills... We only have training once a week in which I find hard because I believe they need more training days and we only have 2 training sessions to go till the season starts. Could you please give me some helpful ideas to help my girls understand netball and how to play netball without me having to put the pressure on them like as if I was coaching under 16s or something...
how to explain to 10/11yr olds to play there own game and not the other teams. i coach a great team who work fantastic together and have been going awesome this year. however they came up against a team on saturday that are still learning the game and the rules ( so there was alot of stepping, contact, and chaos on the court). my girls then started playing a very chaotic game and then making alot of silly mistakes. i said to the girls during the break that they need to play there own game and not the other teams game but i dont think they understood what i meant. does anyone know how i can explain to the girls that they need to play our own game and not there game? thanks
how to get into the goal circle when shooters are being zoned out
Hi, have a short GS in Rep. She has practiced and applied lots of strategies including holding, clearing out and reoffering, dodging and popping in space right in front of defence to take pass, triangles, holding and turning. She has to work super hard because of her lack of height against much taller defences. For the most part, she does really well, however there are still times when she seems to get stuck doing a little sideways dance behind the GK when she comes across a GK who is particularly good at holding front position, shadowing and anticipating the dodge. Does anyway have any suggestions? I am wondering if telling her to change her starting position in the circle, slightly to one side of the circle when the ball is on it''s way down to give her a definite space to drive to and then create doubt by sometimes driving out and sometimes driving back? Would love some ideas to try.
Has anyone got any ideas about shooting drills using only one player

The best way to teach young girls to run forward to the ball rather than standing there waiting for it and calling for it
I am finding our girls are lost on court. Some players are playing harder to make up for girls not being where they should be.

My daughter is gk only 11 so early stages not as tall as her gs opponents what are some tips to help her defend a tall gs who usually asks for lobs and receives it . thanks Asked using Sportplan on Mobile
I was playing GS today and marked by a very tall GK. As I was watching the ball come forward, I moved to the top of the D but she didn't stay with me and remained behind me. I couldn't see her and was unsure if I should stay close to her to be aware of where I could move, or to just move where I wanted. My back was turned to her as I was facing where the ball was, should I be side on to see her in my peripheral vision but not stay with her, or should I keep marking her to hold her then come forward when appropriate? I would be grateful for any advice, thank you,
Hi I coach a great team of under 9s and when we do a driving drill we start with "pitter patter feet" (like a very fast low jog on spot) then when i say GO they drive forward. However a lot of them step back with their foot then drive forward. Any tricks out there to get just going forward? Is it just the foot they start on like the strong foot? Or something else?
