The first player in the middle passes to an outside player (A red) After passing the ball the that player drives forward and marks the ball (now in the hands of the player A1) The player to the right (A2) should then drive into the middle to recieve a pass. They then pass to the next player along (A3) and follow the ball to defend it. A1 drives into the centre to recieve that pass (A Red takes their spot)
This drill demands some focus so it may be worth starting steady to understand the movement and then building intensity. It is important to be confident in setting up quickly at correct distance. Arms up high, covering as much space as possible or covering ball. Balanced stance, bent knees ready to jump.

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.
