I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
The girls I am coaching have never played before and are aged 6 to 7 years, I really need some ideas to teach them the positions of the court - any tips or drills anyone can recommend?
Hello, I'm just trying to do a lesson plan for twenty minutes for netball for 8/9 year olds with very basic skills and not much history in playing netball. Im not really sure what route to take to ensure they can do the task but still fun, and which element of netball would be best to start with? any suggestions much appreciated!!
i'm doing netball coaching as one of my practicals for GCSE PE and ive set myself a few goals such as to improve my confidence to ensure girls enjoy my sessions but what else could I put?
This year I was given the u/10 and u/11 netball girls to coach but none of them has ever played netball where do I start
I am new to coaching this year and have a couple of girls who struggle to catch the ball despite 3 yrs of playing. One is quite scared and the other does not have good gross motor skills. Any suggestions on drills or games to improve these?
I am coaching a little net set go team (set tier) with ages 5-8. Usually I coach high school girls. A mum of one of the 7 yr olds just messaged me with this: "i was just wondering If you have any tips to help us get Miss S enthused about netball, she isn't enjoying it but wants to "give it more time" (her words)." We only have a half hour training session before we play as no one else will coach but this is the only time I can do training and there are players from another town so this is the best option for everyone. We play a couple of warm up drills/games and practice 1 skill ready for our game. I have covered the basics of passing and footwork so far. None of my team have ever played before, but 4 of them did the net set go - net tier last year. The girl has only played 2 games so far as we have had a bye. So far she has had a go at positions GK, GD, GS, GA, and WA. She is the tallest girl in the team and so tends to get a fair amount of the ball. Any ideas on what to suggest to this mum?
We have a few new kids to netball this season and they are developing well but still step continuously. any goods drills or hands on training ideas would be great. thanks
Help, dad thrown in the deep end - what basic attacking strategies do you use for 11 years olds? They have great skill and have played since they were 5 years old, but still run around like headless chickens, everyone calling for the ball and getting in each other's way. Is there a method to this madness I can teach? Some teams look like they know who is going to pass to who and the ball gets from one end to the other fluidly. Impart your netball wisdom on me, oh great netball coaches! Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

I am doing my Netball Level 2 coaching and having problems linking 4 sessions, Can anyone give me guideline?
I have coached for the past 2 seasons, with my teams not having a lot of success. I am hoping that I can coach again for a third season. I want to improve my coaching skills and knowledge over the offseason, so if I am given the chance I can be the best coach that I can be and hopefully lead a team to success.

The Wing Attack is the critical link between midcourt possession and circle feeding. This masterclass breaks down the movement patterns, timing, and spatial awareness that separate elite WAs from the rest, with practical drills to develop these skills at every level.
