Double Lead Down The Court

I am currently coaching a senior college team and I have found Sportplan...
Kiri, Coach

DESCRIPTION

  • Line up 3 pairs down the length of half the netball court (another group can set up on the other side)
  • From the initial feeder, 2 attacking players offer, then the non-receiving player re-offers to receive the ball down the court.
  • This is the signal for the next pair to offer on the ball in the double lead.
  • Complete down the court with the final drive being into the circle to score.
  • You can re-set from that end of the court to work it back down, with the person who took the shot becoming the feeder. Make sure players are partnered with the original feeder now in play.
  • Repeat, mixing up everyone’s position on court, so there are different feeders each time.

Progression

Add in a defender on each pair who can choose to man mark one of them

COACHING POINTS

  • Quick and definite decision so the player behind can read off and make an alternate offer
  • Even starting from behind, that offer must be definite and committed!
  • Taking feet with you on the move, using arms to run, reaching out to grab in a ball placed ahead without leaping.
  • Quick and definite decision so the player behind can read off and make an alternate offer
  • Even starting from behind, that offer must be definite and committed!
  • Feet under body at all times, using arms to run, the reaching out to grab ball in.
  • Player receiving the ball, turn in the air if possible, or pivot fully, quickly and balanced to have full vision down the court.
  •  Player who did not receive the ball, make a sharp change in direction to cut back, looking to take the next pass further down the court, ideally in a straight line.
  • Ball should be placed ahead of player in a straight-line (rather than cross court - this becomes more important when defender added).
