I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
what are some good drills/exercises to increase the jump of the defensive players
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?
i'm not very good at jumping and to become a better netball player i have to learn how to jump. Does anyone have any drills that i can do on my own and with my dad that can help me learn to jump? Thanks.
hi i jut started playing GK for a local netball team and i am struggling abit, im not sure on what i can and cant do, ie jumping and waving my arms etc plz help
How do I coach my under 10 team to gain possession when we keep coming up against teams who are much taller and bigger in stature than my little players?
I coach U11's who seem to expect the ball to fall into their hands rather than jump for it. No matter how much I teach them, they simply don't jump!
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
need help with a workshop/clinic (warm-up ect)
Hi, I play netball frequently, but I am trying out for some new teams and I want to know of some good one player netball drills. I have a wall I use and a hoop. I don't really want to use the ring as much because I wanted to trial as a centre player, but anything is helpful.
How can I improve my explosive strength in order to jump higher and intercept more?
I have a few tall girls in my team and they have never needed to jump for balls, do you have some drills or games that will help them learn to jump
I only have one tall player in my team the rest is very short, I struggle at the defender block
Why do umpires sometimes blow the defender for jumping up (and presumably shortening their distance and then other times, they do not. I have been watching a lot of international games and its so confusing.
how can GD intercept the ball from GA at the net
how can defender defend if she is in correct distance?
Are there any exercises we can had into our warm ups to get the girls jumping higher

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

I am just wondering what are good exercises, drills and techneic to increase players elevation on vertical jumps?
in more ways than one
The early 'shoot from anywhere' era is over. Smart teams now use data-driven decision models to decide when the two-pointer is worth it.
The short pass is being penalised more consistently in 2026. Here's how to train proper passing technique and eliminate hand-offs under pressure.
No more 50/50 toss-ups. When simultaneous infringements occur, possession now goes to the team that last had the ball. Here's what it means for your coaching.
