I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
I have a group of approx 20 people and I am looking for some tips how to plan out a session with some sort of game at the end? thanks in advance
How does a coach keep training sessions fun, complex, educational and entertaining enough to keep the older girls interested and for the younger girls to keep up? And some training sessions have less than 10 girls (easy to handle) and some can have maybe over 30. Only ONE of these teams (a group of 9) are mine and the other 20-odd are from at least 4 other teams in the club.
I have an U10 team playing in Div 1, we are doing well coming 2nd in the comp. The problem i have is I have 8,9 and 10 year olds in the team as we are a small club. I am looking for Drills to cater all age groups and the girls abilities/skills. There are girls who play beyond their ages, and then girls who cannot catch or throw a ball, (basically 6 of the 9 players cannot do both). They have improved, but i find the skilled players are getting frustrated as there are alot of turnovers due to basic errors, bad passes, stepping, offside etc....any advice would be appreciated.Thanks
What are some good warm up drills that could be used with a group of approximately 20-30 girls? I need to make sure they are all doing something otherwise they get distracted and lose their concentration.
I will be regularly coaching a group of Back to Netball ladies (aged 16 plus) and have been told that there are approx. 30 signed up (prob end up with 20 regulars). I have a session planned for them tonight as a starter for ten but I am conscious that with such numbers when it comes to court time at the end of a session e.g. game time some won't be able to participate on court. For tonight (and partly because I'm told these ladies are new to netball) I'm going to be getting those sat off court to do some observation of basic rules e.g. give each a card with a rule on it and see if they spot anything during the game play. Some can also help with scoring. Then I'm having people subbed on and off every 5 mins so all get some game time. Are there any other suggestions from people about managing such a large group with just one court available? The rest of the session is fine as they can all join in the warm up, skills sessions and warm down.
Is it best to take a full squad of 10 or just 8 of that squad? Do you rotate each week or during the game? Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
Help! I am a student coach and I need to plan a session for approximately 50 girls and we only have one court available to train on. Any drills that can be used to train such a large group?

How to do a roster to rotate 10 netball players

I coach a year 6 team, half of the girls are quite competitive and gave played together for a few years. I have two girls who are playing their second year with my team and I am struggling progressing these girls... They both don't seem to have any idea on court for it being their second year.. There is only so much I can do in an hour training session when I have to accomodate the rest of the team.. Any suggestions on what I should do with these two girls? I have provided them with printed information on positions and court placement for "study".. Should I put some responsibility back on the parents?
I want to be able to fairly rotate a team of 9 over a course of 10 weeks was wondering if anyone knows of a generator or something that could help.
Just wondering what is the best position to leave vacant if only 6 girls can attend a game. It's u11's with 2 brand new players & we are getting beaten by large margins & it's one of our seasoned players that will be off Asked using Sportplan on Mobile
Within our team we have a player that has been in the team from 9/un. We now play open age 15/un and it is way above her skills and abilities. She has difficulty with training and is guaranteed to to cry at most sessions. I have spoken to her mother to encourage her to try and I have spoken to the player. I have asked her if she is happy within the team etc also asked why she plays and what she gets out of it. She always answer that she doesnt know but she is happy. The competition and team mates are way above her abilities - what to do? Suggestions would be much appreciated.
How do you fairly and evenly manage a team with 10 players without offending and upsetting people? How do you compile a roster or game plan to accomodate everyone, and what can you do to avoid upset around finals time?
they are shooting from too far away and are missing a lot of goals Do I take them back to basics? they are 12 year old girls. We lost the grand final by 3 goals and there has been a team change for the Spring season.
Hi, im overwhelmed, how do i manage an a and b under 11 teams together, same day same time. There is a huge difference in skills between the 2 teams. It feels like i am not productive in the sessions.. Asked using Sportplan Mobile App
Hi, I'm co-coaching an U13 team. The players are a mix of experienced, but mostly inexperienced players, with a couple of players who are really talented (these are two of our inexperienced players). All players are new to each other. The girls won every game at the district grading days and we were upgraded two levels. We are now in round 6 of the competition and the girls have lost every game and we just lost from the team that was below them on the ladder. We've had a couple of injuries and one was quite bad in round 4 requiring surgery which has shaken the girls as well. They are starting to lose heart and their game is deteriorating. How do we keep them motivated?
