Teams split into two teams, each player in the teams are numbered 1-4. The coach at random lists off a number while throwing the netball into the court. The player who is that number runs into the court and attempts to reach the ball before the opposition. upon reaching the ball the player must attempt to through it to either coach on the court.
Ensure players reach the ball before the opposition without stepping. Be considerate about players colliding. Some players may be unable to throw the ball all the way to the coach so make sure to move with the player.

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.
