Netball: player position

How do you get the shooters to passI have a 9 year old team and the shooter will not pass the ball and thinks that scoring the goals is important instead of playing as a team and getting closer to circle.

JUST WOUNDERING WHAT IS THE BEST AND FAIREST WAY TO PLAY NINE PLAYERS HOW TO ROTATE THEM , THEY ALL WANT TO HAVE GAME TIME

9 players - 4 girls off half a game each week or 2 players off per quarter? I coach a 10 yrs team in a very close A grade competition. There are 9 players therefore 2 reserves are needed each quarter. Is it best to have 4 girls off for half a game each week, less disruption to team but best players are then off for half a game - girls are off every second week, or 2 girls off each quarter, more disruption but best players are only off for quarter of a game, girls are off every week. I am required to give all players equal time on the court throughout the season. Thank you.

The shooter / goal attack has taken up position to shoot. The defensive player takes up position behind the shooter, the three feet rule is applied and no other infringement is present. The defensive player places her hand beneath the ball, not touching the ball or the player. The shooter brings the ball down to take the shot and touches the hand of the defensive player. Is this taken as contact and how strictly is this rule applied? Lee-Anne

I need some ideas for training nettas. Particulary on the positions on the court.

So i'm coaching a group of year 8 students who have little knowledge about netball and the skill i have to teach is positional play and i have no idea what to do as a practice drill and modified game ?

Are you allowed to mark another player off court if you remain on court??

how can I improve my contact and offside, are there any drills that I can use so here are less penalty's given away in a game

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?

I am having trouble with one of my players who is a very valuable mid court player, yet obseses about wanting to play GS, not only is she the shortest in the team but when she has played GS she struggles to get in front to receive the ball. No matter how much I explain that the mid court is where she needs to be she wont let it up & even has a nasty attitude towards other players. I have very good shooters in the team, how do I explain without upsetting her but in a way that will get through to her that shooting is not for her this season??

Just interested to hear other people's comments on when a player should start to concentrate on a position on court. I coach young girls and older girls and am amazed at how some girls get pigeon holed very early on as a shooter or as a centre for example. What do people think!?

Is there any software where I can feed in players names, the positions they prefer to play in order/won't play and it will create a play list for me for 3 sessions rotating the players around to try and accomodate their favourite position(s)?I'm currently using post-it notes on a court plan which is quite fiddly and time consuming.Any suggestions would be welcome. We usually have 10 players over 3 thirds to plan with.

hai ! i am athirah from Malaysia. I am player netball in my state, my positon in netball always change until i do not know how and what position that i really good.My coach always change me on other position and i really confuse on what position i am good enough..can i get your advise ?

I have a new player and we don't have a WD so I was thinking to put her into a WD.

How to stop a lot of contact with having a position as WD throughout the court, does anyone have any tips ? Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

how to apply progression

Only have 6 players which position is best to leave out Asked using Sportplan Mobile App

We are playing summer comp (13 yr old girls). We have one shooter with a broken finger, and usually one other is injured or sick each week leaving us weekly with 5 players only. Which 2 positions do I not fill? Another coach told me WA and WD but I feel it just gives us both a weak attacking and a week defending team. I'm now thinking of putting the girls in attack only (GS GA WA C) with one girl in defence- GD ( and our centre covering the WD position from the other teams centre pass) This way we increase our chances of scoring from our own centre pass and still have someone defending their GA and WA from their centre pass in the hope of a intercept. Am I crazy??? Asked using Sportplan on Mobile

Where should I position players on the court for a throw-in from the backline?

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
