Netball: for young players

what is nice and hard working excersises for girls u/13? I have fat players in my team and I want them fit as I am in C so what can I do?

Hi can u give me some ideas on how the shooters would feed themselves closer towards the goal. What i mean is by passing the ball in and out 2 one person and moving closer 2 the goal at the same time . Something simple for girls aged 10.

Hi I am a first year coach of a 9 and under team.My girls are struggling with the concept of running to space and receiving a pass on the move while advancing the ball to our attacking third.It seems no matter how hard i try to implement drills for passing at practice, come game day the girls still group together and call for the ball standing still. Any ideas/drills anyone could suggest would be greatly appreciated. Regards Mark

coaching u13s have 6 good players and 2 that this their first season.For this first half of the season most of their training has been catching and throwing .I find that they are not improving so on game days the other players are reluctant to pass it to them as they either drop the ball or pass it to the opposition.I am struggling to know what to do 

I have a 13 yr old who struggles to pass off quickly and always looks for a better option. When passing in drills her passes are strong but in a game they are weak and inaccurate. What drills can work on with her to assist?

What is the best way to teach the positions to 8 year old first time players?

What is the best way to rotate my 8 players. I currently bench one player every quarter.

Hi I have a player who has recently taken up another sport and cannot attend training at all but can attend the weekend game. We are half way through the season. I am not sure whether its fair to give this player as much game time as the other girls and just wanted to know what other coaches might do in this situation. Thanks

Is it a good idea to break the team up into their different positions and work in small groups ?

How to get my GD and GK to know how to defend a 2 v 1 situation if one of them are standing out, outside of the ring?

How can I stop my eight year olds from bunching?

My teams is playing opposition this week who has a very good GD who is a master floater. Last time we played them we played into her hands and lost by 2 and I want to have a few tactics for this week.We also had a young player fill-in WA last time which didn't help as she was unfamiliar with our team. I was trying to get the players to look for our GA who was often free but I think she was playing too close to the goal circle which made things a bit crowded. I think also that once my players realised what the GD was doing, they started to hesitate on the pass.Our GS is reasonably tall and has a good hold so if we can get a good high pass into her before the GD can drop back that may help.Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I am the coach of an U11's netball team, and I was wondering if anyone had a roster or something to help with rotating a team of 9? I had it all worked out for 8 players but we've just had another girl join. Thanks.

My associate coach and I disagree on whether U/10s should play different positions or focus/settle on one, maybe two. I don't want to put the girls in a box at such a young age but I also don't want a Jack of all Trades situation. They are still developing so much that I feel I'll be doing them a disservice by just putting them in the same position every week. The assistant coach says if we move them around we're not going to do as well but that is where the participation vs performance comes in for me. Surely at this age development is more important than winning?No coach likes to lose but I don't want to win at the expense of them experiencing different positions. What do you guys suggest? Thanks in advance! A Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

So this year I have had multiple problems with a parent. I have been yelled at by her in front of the girls and parents at a game and she has honestly made my time at netball horrible. She has told me multiple times that my training isn’t good enough and that it’s needs to get better, that I am in the wrong for sitting her daughter off for half a game, that the only reason I am coaching the team is because the club didn’t give her the team and many more things. Last year the girls won the grand final and the year before they were runners up. (her daughter in both those teams)I am 19 years old and I have been coaching for 6 years and playing for 13. Safe to say I know what I am doing. I have gone to the club about her and they know what she has done. I am hoping I do not have to deal with her next year, but if I do does anyone have any suggestions in regards to dealing with this bullying. Thanks in advance !! Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

I am new to coaching this year and have a couple of girls who struggle to catch the ball despite 3 yrs of playing. One is quite scared and the other does not have good gross motor skills. Any suggestions on drills or games to improve these?

What is the best way to teach a new girl how to shoot a goal? Is it 2 handed with ball above the head and arms stretched up?
