I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
I would like to coach 'high five' or 'netta' system to our year 3/4 girls. As there are no wings I would like to verify if the goal shooter/keeper are still restricted to their usual thirds? Many thanks.
i am teaching a small group netball. previously they have been playing high five netball, which in my opinion is rubbish. i need to teach them about positional play but want to do it a fun way. has anyone got any suggestions on how i do this? thanks

Hi, Are there agreed sizes of Netball for different age groups and where is this specified at an official level? What are the physical dimensions, weights and material recommended for different ball sizes / age groups? Thanks, Librarian
I have began coaching Under 9's this season, we have played 3 games and I have kept the girls mostly in the same positions as my plan was to spend a few weeks in an Attacking Position, then a few in a defending position and then say the last 5 games in the area you are best at and enjoy the most. I was planning to change positions for this Saturdays game, but training has been cancelled due to bad weather. My question is, do I change their positions on game day with limited time to do any sort of game plan etc or do I just keep the same as the past 3 games? I know there is no right or wrong however I am interested in your opinions.
I coach 16 and 17 yr olds, so they are more than capable. I have one girl who already knows what do but her explanations are terrible and I dont know how to explain it to the rest of the team.
How to do a roster to rotate 10 netball players
We are playing summer comp (13 yr old girls). We have one shooter with a broken finger, and usually one other is injured or sick each week leaving us weekly with 5 players only. Which 2 positions do I not fill? Another coach told me WA and WD but I feel it just gives us both a weak attacking and a week defending team. I'm now thinking of putting the girls in attack only (GS GA WA C) with one girl in defence- GD ( and our centre covering the WD position from the other teams centre pass) This way we increase our chances of scoring from our own centre pass and still have someone defending their GA and WA from their centre pass in the hope of a intercept. Am I crazy??? Asked using Sportplan on Mobile
What is the best age for girls to start netball training?Submitted by email
My Daughter is currently playing netball two times a week and training once plus some work at school in other sports,she is twelve years of age but is taller than some of the other girls but they are now catching up but my daughter does not know how to jump because she has been taller.How can I get her to change this through a training routine?She is a good player and I suspect she could be a lot better if she improved her fitness but I am loath to push her developing body.Any suggestions please?
