Hi I have a team of 9/10year olds, when the ball is coming through the court and they are on defence, they have started chasing their partners and not watching the ball. At some stages today, they had their backs to ball, and no idea where the ball is? Any good drills out there, that work on marking the partner, but watching where the ball is too? Looking for those intercepts. They have started facing their partners, Thanks.

How do you teach man on man defence with 13yr olds? I have some really good defenders but they struggle to try and stay side on their player watching ball and player. I would like a drill that would help enforce this type of defence. Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
I've just recovered form an ankle injury after 4 weeks without any netball. i was wondering how i should get back to netball, because i often find myself wondering if i will still be good at attacking and defending and all the other things you need as a player. Should i take it easy on the first week of training? What if i'm not good enough for the games we have on Saturday??

Hello - i am looking for a few GD tips on the best way to defend a shooter that receives the ball a couple of ways as i always struggle to get around them when they do these moves! First way is that the shooter lunges out very wide (practically doing the splits) to receive the ball from the feeder on the circle edge and steps back closer to the net with the foot that is closest. I can defend her getting close to the net, but then she turns to the feeder and jumps and splits - thus always ending up close to the net. The second way is when the shooter stays quite stationery under the net, a couple of foot off the back line and holds her space there. she receives the ball by a large over head pass, so she steps back slightly on one leg to receive the ball from the feeder. what would be the best way to defend all the large overhead long passes to her, or draw her out? any help or some ideas i can try would be great! thank you :-)

Why is contact from the shooters with the ball not penalized. When its clear that the defenderâs distance is correct, the shooter brings the ball into the defenders hand. The defender is not lowering the hand.Please help me understand why the shooters gets away with this? how can the level of umpires not penalize?? Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

Help... I am new to coaching netball albeit have played for years. My experience in playing comes from being an attacker so trying to work with my defence, is proving tricky. The issue I have is that both my GD and GK face mark. I have tried numerous drills in training however as soon as they get in to a match, they revert back to face marking. When the ball is coming down the court, I encourage them to stay on their toes, side marking and moving in front and round the back however when the GA or the GS moves out, the face marking starts. We have had balls bounce of the backs of heads and all sorts. Does anyone have any tips? Di
My GD was do face marking in a game and doing a fantastic job at blocking the GA entering the circle and not being able to shake her off, the umpire for the other team repeatedly called her for intimidation.To me it did not appear to be intimidation and the player herself umpires and sees this in many of the high level games. She is not pushing, no arms are used in fact it is the other players pushing into her. Is this intimidation I thought that was a pretty tough call. What constitutes as intimidation?
