I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
Hi this is not exactly a coaching question more of a plea for help. I live in Cornwall, England and do some coaching for my local primary school. I am desperate to get myself some official coaching sessions i.e netball 1 and 2 coaching. I dont know where to go for funding??? No joy with school sports coordinator. Has anybody got any suggestions please. I really want to give these children some good positive coaching skills.
I would love to become a netball coach but have no idea where to start
Playing ball off post from back line pass
I have a u/14 team with no netbal experience. I myself have never played netbal before. How do I start and what is the most important rules and patterns they need to know?
9yr old accurate shooter with 95% shooting stats shoots from chest. team has been upgraded to play 12yr olds so she needs to learn higher shooting stance as def too tall, but she is having difficulty with this and fast loosing confidence. should i pull her from shooting for awhile as she learns, what do you suggest
what are the different path ways in to netball?
I am currently going through the rule book with my team to improve their understanding but had some queries from a player that has played at quite a high level in Australia. In particular rule 13.1(v) which states: a player may having batted the ball once, either catch or direct the ball to another player and 13.1(vi) having bounced the ball once, either catch or direct the ball to another player. She disputes this rule and says the ball cannot be bounced or batted under control before catching it as umpires have called it replayed ball. Can someone please clarify as I am using England netball official rule book 2011 edition.
...where it will list and describe playing terminology such as shave, tackle-back, steal, forehand.
we had two different umpire opinion's last game about the defender placing her hand on the ball to prevent the shooter from being able to shoot.one umpire stated this was contact and that the defender is not allowed to do this, but the other umpire stated that as the defender was the required 3 feet away she can place her hand on the ball
What height should the post be for U9 and U11 netball?
We're running a Fastnet session soon and would appreciate any tips or advice on how best to do so.
i dont have anyone to play with at home but i want to better my fitness and agility as well as working on some core exercises. what exercises would you suggest to do? thank you.
I'm due to start coaching some 6-12yr olds in February (have a meeting ahead of that in a week). At the moment I don't have any idea about abilites or previous experience but plan to ask about that next week, though I am guessing it won't be much, especially the younger ones. At the same time, I will be hepling to mentor some new coaches to help them progress (they will be Level 1 so assistant level in England). Any good tips for starting points? I have 12 weeks with them (all 1 hour sessions). My thoughts were to start with things like basic techniques for passing and getting footwork correct before moving onto attacking and defending principles as well as making sure there are plenty of fun games they can take part in.
how many contact obstructions are you aloud to have?
