How can I teach my daughter to jump?

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?

How do I teach my defenders to jump for rebounds?

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!

Stepping in the centre circle

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

Solo drill suggestions to improve my game?

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.

Defence in the circle

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.

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.
