WHat is the best way to have a defender defend against a much taller opponent. the question is with particular reference to the Goal Circle
I have a tall girl who is a great shooter, but she struggles in getting free for the ball. Can you suggest any drills to help her with this.
How do you defend a really tall goal shooter? Are there any tactics to keep her out of the ring? Please help The reason I ask is because my GK has to defend a GS next week who is super super tall! She is a very good GS and if the ball gets to her it usually goes in.
The 163cm defender is great against regular height girls her age (ie 13) but I need some help with the tall girls (185 cm +). She jumps really well and is constantly with the player. She reads the play well but it is almost soul destroying to see the opposition lob the ball into the tall girl who stands and waits for the shot.
We are playing in n a grand final this week and the opposition has a very tall GS and holds very well. I am thinking of getting my defences to double team her but wanting to know best way to teach this & also what's the best way of stopping the GA (just getting WD & c to try & block her getting in the ring) any thoughts on best way to beat a tall shooter. The girls are 13 but played a lot of netball. Thanks
