The two attacking players will stand backwards with their back facing the player who will throw the ball. Then the thrower will shout go and the players will turn with the attacking player deciding which direction to run and sprint out to. Therefore the defender is aiming to be ahead of the attacker and react quicker by getting infront and defending the ball. The idea of turning is aiming to increase the reactions of the players and ensure that they can stick to their attackers. The attackers are also to run directly into areas to receive the ball.

A ready-to-run Halloween session for High 5 and junior netball. Real drills in spooky costume, with a warm-up, a technical block, a decision-making game and a finish.
Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
