Rule 17: contact in particular 17.2(i)

can someone please clarify interpretation of this particular rule. I had a situation on court where the GA was driving into the goal circle and the GK, having spotted this, moved into that space to "block" the attacker. Who contacted who as they were both moving at speed.

Clearing out and re-attacking

I have a strong team of u21's who play brilliantly, except for running into one another space. Is there a drill which focuses on clearing out before re-attacking as a group?

Beating a defender who is blocking?

How do you beat a player that is blocking/face defending an attacker who is finding it hard to get free? Particularly when they are trying to go forward into the space for the ball.

Alternative Centre Pass plays to goal ring.

We currently use standard plays, but looking for different movements to make when a centre pass has been made.

U10's making space and passing the ball early?

Hello all, I have been coaching my u10's currently for 2 years now. They are a fabulous little team i.e. gs holds and defence box out etc however we are never winning games! They are currently playing up a year and after sitting back and watching what is going wrong I had noticed they all seem to be in one area so no-one can drive into a space to receive a direct fast ball. When this occasionally does happen the ball is not released fast enough and consequently intercepted! I was wondering if anyone has an tips on space, driving into space, and early passes! This team could be amazing if we sort this is out! Please help!!!!!!!!!

playing a team with very good passing to space

How does a team defend against opposition that pass into space extremely well. I teach my girls to stay in front of player as a defender but their passing is extremely on point and very difficult to intercept. Can you give me some suggestions.

Can this drill be used for attacking/ receiving ball in space?

Hi, Do any netballers or coaches know if this drill could be used for attacking if you treat the 3 black Cs as only posts and the grey C drives into the space to catch the ball. just to practice running into space to receive ball?

Throwing to opposition

Hi I coach under 9s and this is my third season with the same girls. We have gone up a section, the opposition teams are very good but we have gone backwards a bit, particularly throwing to the opposition nearly every pass. We will intercept but then throw it away with passing straight to the other team. How do I try and rectify this. Thanks in advance

Goaling drills that simulate game pressure

Goalies are practicing but game day percentage are lower due to increase in pressure. Also need to penetrate ring deeper for higher percentage shots. Need feeders working harder to help goalies get better position Any drills would be helpful 👍😊 Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

Passing Problems !!!! | Sportp...

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

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.
