I'm a new nettas coach for my daughter's U7 team. I have a few drills but would really appreciate some coaching tips (their attention span isn't that long!) I'm feeling a bit clueless about the training.

Ask a question and have it answered by Coaches from around the world and Sportplan's team of Experts.

What to do as coach when you come up against a rough, aggressive team?

How do you advise your team as Coach when they come up against a rough and agressive team?  What is the best way to cope with rough play. Thanks

Shooting partners screening in the goal circle?

Hi, Wondering if any one can clarify the ruling for shooting partners screening in the goal circle? Our GA has screened effectively so far this season but was pulled by the umpire today when screening the GS? She hadn't contacted either defender, and was at 90cm distance, so we were left a little confused?? Is there a set distance they need to be away from their shooting partner?? She was told she was too close and a penalty pass given to the defender. Advice greatly appreciated %3A)

Any hints on how shorter defenders can defend a very tall GS.

The 163cm defender is great against regular height girls her age (ie 13) but I need some help with the tall girls (185 cm +). She jumps really well and is constantly with the player. She reads the play well but it is almost soul destroying to see the opposition lob the ball into the tall girl who stands and waits for the shot.

Net Set Go (Netta) Player Rotation sheets

I'm managing a U9's team which has 10 players. I'm looking for a 9 player rotation spreadsheet that doesn't have anyone off for half the game and has people in at least three positions. I can find some but they either have people off for half the game or only playing 2 positions. I intend to roster one girls off each week (from experience having players only playing half a game leads to unhappy parents!). Thanks

Breaking the stepping habit

I have a team of older girls (16-17yo), several who have still not mastered their footwork. Most have developed this habit over the past few years and I need to fix it as soon as possible. I would be glad of any suggestions...

Contacting the ball in a player's hands.

The opposing centre was touching the ball when marking the centre pass. However, on three occasions my centre was called for contact with the umpire saying she was initiating the contact by pushing the ball into the players arms. Maybe she was, but how can an umpire be sure who is initiating this? my centre was reduced to tears after being called for the third time (we are talking U12 here). Any ideas?

I have been using Sportplan now for 3 years and can honestly say that I have never repeated the same session twice. My girls are always focused and are improving every year. Thanks Sportplan.

Debbie Cross Australia

What a fantastic tool. The Chalkboard and session tools make an unbelievable difference in making training plans in both time and organization. I will be instructing all of my assistant coaches that this tool must be used for all sessions during the season, so that we may build a club coaching resource library.
