Good one person drills?

I'm a GS playing indoor netball (ie with astroturf and nets around the court). I'm planning on trying out for superleague and state next year, and I want to get some good training in. My local centre have said I can practice there any time I want. I can practice shooting by myself, but the areas I feel I need to work on are catching quick passes, catching angled/spinning passes off the net and breaking free of different style defenders. Any ideas on how I can work on these skills by myself?

Is this type of defending an advantage or disadvantage?

I play school and state netball as a GK/GD, when my other player is defending the GS or GA, I hold on to her defenders leg/hand for an extra lean. Because I'm quite larger and taller than most girls and already have a pretty good lean, when I ask my defender to hold me so that i am closer to deflecting the shot, she uses two of her hands and her body strength to hold me. My coach told me not to do this because she believed I wasn't allowing myself nor my other player to get an intercept or rebound, even though we had gotten most rebounds and had gotten a few intercepts with this technique. Is this an disadvantage or advantage to us?

Can you jump as you shoot in Netball?

I know the normal technique for shooting in netball keeps two feet on the ground, but I would just like to know whether that would be a foul if you jumped as you took your shot? Thanks

Which leaning technique is most effective?

When defending a shooter is the straight lean more effective or the jump when they are shooting? Yes it may depend but any advice please?

Hi,I'm trying to teach my 11/12 year old's to be ready and jump for rebounds. Is there any specific drills that can help me with this?

Shooting when mid-jump

Just wondering if you are able to put up a shot when both feet are off the ground, in mid-jump. I am coaching boys and curious to know if they are able to "slam-dunk" in netball so to speak. I know that touching the ring in any way is not allowed but is the goal valid if scored when the player doesn't have contact with the ground? Thank you

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.
