This drill is to practice footwork and body movement before transitioning into ball work and full court movement and game situations. Using half a court or full court if room permitting, set pairs of cones equal distances down the centre channel. 1 attacker per cone. Attacker drives forward (lead), turns inward so that they face the court, wide clear out using side step motion (focus on low stances, feet shoulder width apart, on the balls of their feet), quick change of pace into a fast, strong drive to the next cone. Repeat this motion all the way down the court. when attacker reaches the end, walk around outside of court back to the start and repeat on opposite side of court. Focus on timing and keeping in sync, attackers must also be aware of spacing and other players (look before driving)

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.
