GK has the throw in close to the ring. C leads forward for the pass from the centre circle into the goal 3rd. GD and WD start on opposite sides at the top of the shooters area and lead backwards with the play. WD takes possession. WA leads out to ball side for pass. GA leads back to top of shooters area GS leads out from under ring.
NOTE: The WA will need to know who C is going to pass to so they can lead to the right side early. The GA needs to be aware as well, as they need to be on the opposite side of the passing ball to make the lead.

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.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
