I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
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.
my players seem to get the worst injuries, their 14 and they do everything right cushion landings with a should width base and outside foot pivots? what vare we doing wrong? last year i started with 10 players and at the grand final i had 6 of my original players, i had to bring up 10 year olds!! help?????
What should I do on a first coaching session ? I don't want the girls to get bored, i want them to want to come back next week.
When a player ( one that has played Netball for some years ) receives a pass how do you stop her from taking a giant step and taking time to control balance, instead of a shoulder width step and have control stright away?
hey i hurt my foot playing netball i roll on one side as i was landing. The doctor said all i had done was torn some tissue. But they didn't tell if i can play on the weekend and train on Wednesday. Can i?
writing a handbook and wanted to know a decent 'how to' for pivoting
After my opponent release the ball can I use my body but not arms to block in front of her so as to prevent her from going to the front?( In centre third) If the opponent just run ahead and crash on the defender, is it a contact?Or in fact the action of the defender preventing the attacker to run towards goal third is obstruction or a rule called" causing contact"?
How can I help players cope with aggressive contest. Are there any drills you use to develop skills and strategies, especially for circle players?
I need some training tips to help girls with landing and foot work?
i am coaching my netball team currently the age range is between 16-21 and i would like some drills and warm up i could do with the team since we normally do the same thing at every training session we have.
I coach 11 year olds. Let's say our GK secures a rebound, pivots and looks to pass to WD who is holding her position on the circle edge (leaving no space for anyone to get in front of her).Is the WA from the other team allowed to then place her outside foot in between our WDs feet and effectively bully / push her way so that half her body is in front of our WD?

in more ways than one
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.
Train your defenders to win clean turnovers, not just disrupt. The difference between good defenders and great ones is taking the ball, not just touching it.
Netball is experiencing unprecedented growth, with record viewership, evolving rules, and professional leagues expanding worldwide. Here's what 2026 brings for our sport.
