How do you pivot
My year 6 girls are experimenting with stepping in to shoot a goal. I'm finding this to be a disadvantage as they are unbalanced on one foot and therefore inaccurate. The defender is not required to step back, keeping 3 feet from the grounded foot so the shot is put up into the defenders hand. I am a centre court player so I'm not sure what advice to give.
writing a handbook and wanted to know a decent 'how to' for pivoting
Hi all coaches - any tips on how to coach a player who is getting pulled up for "late take off" footwork - i find it difficult to explain clearly - Thanks! Alison
My centre was penalised for stepping in the centre circle - she took her centre stance and after the whistle was blown she stepped out with one foot. I didnt think a centre had a 'landing foot' at a centre pass, providing both feet are in the circle when the whistle blows, but the umpire said when she returned to the circle she put her left foot in first so that became her landing foot even though play had not been started. I told her just to stay in the circle but I would like to know if the umpire was correct or if she had it wrong
When a shooter steps in to shoot, but no defender was in place at that time, can one come up and then defend within the 3ft of the shooter but are 3ft from their original landing foot? Does the 3ft need to be 'established' before they defend or can they defend anytime after they step in?
How does a defender know where to judge her 3 foot defensive stance when shooters opt for a simultaneous split landing?
When a shooter lands in the circle and then turns on her landing heel to get closer to the post, am I right in thinking that the 3ft distance for the defender is measured from where her landing foot toe now is rather than where it was when she originally landed? And is it dependant upon whether the defender is marking from in front or behind ie if it's from behind then it's 3 ft from the shooter's landing heel and if it's from in front then it's from their landing toe?
My girls play in A grade for under 10's and they were doing very well until last week where every player was picked up for stepping more than once. They played terribly and obviously lost confidence with their feet so their passes were lobby and they were not thinking about where they were passing. We practice drills at training but I need really good drills help them intuitively feel their grounded foot vs moving foot. Can anyone suggest anything?
I need some clarification please. In the goal circle if GS steps in towards the goal post and lifts her grounded foot, where does the defender defend from if the shooter stepped in before the defender lifted her arms? Is the 3ft from where her grounded foot was or where she stepped in to?
When a shooter lands and then steps in to shoot, lifting grounded foot, do GK/GD have to have already been 3ft from grounded foot, or can you come in after the 'step in' and defend the shot, as long as you're 3ft from the grounded foot?? I think I'm allowed to come in later but kept getting pulled up for it tonight. I'm sure having to be there first with hands up before said step in, is an old rule...
please can someone list some technical netball terms?

When shooting, can you jump so both feet leave the ground? Asked using Sportplan on Mobile
