I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
What is a good Goal Setting activity for a netball team?
My friend coaches an under 13s team and when someone has the ball they all run for it like seagulls going for bread. The coach has told them many times to spread out and for not everyone to run to the ball at once but the girls keep doing it and they can't get the ball down the court.
what is the best way of keeping game stats and is there a template??
Hi, I am new to coaching, but have played all my life.I have taken on a team of 13 year olds this year, and am enjoying it. I have a few challenges, but the main one is that one of my key players, GK, has ADD/ADHD. She is the tallest girl on the team, and would be so effective if she just tried. She doesn't try. She doesn't engage with me or the other players. I have given her plenty of positive feedback, in the hopes that she will be boosted by that, I even partnered with her tonight at our training session, just to see how she would go. In the warm up with me, she was great, kept up and stayed enthused. When we started running drills and working on different things, she just doesn't even appear to be engaged. I know she is medicated when she comes to training, but I need her to switch on in a game situation. At the end of our training sessions, we always play a small game, and she just loses her enthusiasm and just doesn't try. I'm looking for ways to help and encourage her. Any ideas or suggestions welcome!!
I have been asked to help select college senior and junior teams. I have never done this before so would appreciate ANY advice. I don't think the teams for the trial games have been set up yet. What's the best way to do this?
Where can I find a netball team sheet
Hi everyone. I am a first time coach and my team knows nothing! where should I start and what drills would you recommend?
Our girls must rotate positions each quarter and then by the end of the season they must have played a set amount of quarters in each position as instructed by our Association. Our team has 9 players so 1 player will get a "full" game each week and two players sit on the bench each quarter. Does anyone have an excel spread sheet they use to help them keep track?
I am coaching an under 9As netball team in their first year of competition. I have 6 experienced players and 3 new players who have never played before. There are 9 in the team so there will always be 2 reserves. I am wondering if anyone has any ideas or advice as to how to organise/rotate the players each week so they each have their turn off. The girls need to have equal time on the court. I also don't want to disrupt their teamwork and want to keep the team as strong as possible at all times. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.
What drills should I do on the first training session for everyone to get to know each other? The girls I'm coaching are in year 3 and 4.
Does anyone have a game stat sheet broken down by quarters that they are willing to share?
How to do a roster to rotate 10 netball players
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?
Is there spreadsheet for rotating 10 players?

I need some ideas for training nettas. Particulary on the positions on the court.
What is the best way to rotate 11 girls. Has anyone got a spreadsheet?

I'm managing a U9's team which has 10 players. I'm looking for a 9 player rotation spreadsheet that doesn't have anyone off for half the game and has people in at least three positions. I can find some but they either have people off for half the game or only playing 2 positions. I intend to roster one girls off each week (from experience having players only playing half a game leads to unhappy parents!). Thanks

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.
