Good to practise straight leads with juniors. Ball starts with feeder facing away from the rest of the group. Throws the ball in air to catch and turn. This is to indicate timing.Next attacker drives forward to receive the ball. They pivot to turn fully down the court which is the cue for the next player to move towards ball for a pass. This continues down the court. Repeat drill making appropriate adjustments to the timing of the run Swap around position on court.
Running quickly (driving) onto ball, use of arms to run Running feet right onto the ball, landing balanced. Turn fully to look down court. Careful on timing so you don't end up too close to the feeder!

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.
