Set up: 3 defenders in each third a trailing 'post' and two sideline 'posts' attackers working in pairs to bring the ball down the court.
This is a great practise to round off a number of attacking movement sessions, because you can address the following coaching points: Driving and clearing Timing of drive 1st second and 3rd second ball Preliminary movements / set-up before a drive Looking down the court first Using change of pace rather than sprinting on everything Giving partner time to make a second movement Opening vision; use of posts strategically (based on where partner is positioned) rather than always as a back up Taking on a defender

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.
