Netball: Give and Go - Landing Circle Edge

Thank you, what a brilliant site. Our team uses many of these effective...

Debbie

A starts with the ball

ORANGE drives and receives the ball from A (1)
RED drives straight to receive the ball from ORANGE (2)
Orange does a 'give and go' to receive the ball back from Red, landing circle edge (3)
ORANGE then drives high into the third to receive the ball back from RED (4)
YELLOW drives out straight to receive the ball from RED (5)
RED does a 'give and go' to receive the ball back from YELLOW (6)
YELLOW then drives deep to land circle edge and receives the ball back from RED (7)
BLUE drives into the circle and receieves the ball from YELLOW (8)

The practice is then repeated in the same order.

To begin tell each player to go back to their orignal queue - so they are practicing the same movement over and over.

Ensure each player focuses on driving hard onto the ball and focus on their angles

Each player will be doing a 'give and go' this will allow them to get the feel of it and be able to implement it on court

Once your players have got the hang of the drill they can move onto the next queue once they have past the ball

This will allow each player to think about their new role.

RELATED PLANS...

Develop your players' ability to land on the circle edge to reduce the pressure on the ball carrier and increasing the success of the pass.

OFTEN USED WITH...

The winger players passes the ball into the centre and then runs to the first blue cone
The winger then cuts inside and receives the ball back at the top of the D
As the winger receives the return pass the player in the D cuts outside and in to receive the ball, before taking a shot.

Footwork

Using the width of a third create 3 lines either side of the third (a minimum of 12 players is required for this drill to be effective)

The first row of 3 (RED) will have one ball and work it to the other side (1, 2, 3)

The ball is passed off to the next set of 3 who will do the same (4)

HOWEVER the 3 players who were just attacking (RED) will now defend the next set of 3 who they just passed the ball too

NOTE: The GREEN players who have just defended will go behind the BLUE and get ready for their turn to attack

Group practices

2 feeders, 2 attackers (WA, C) and 2 defenders and a GS set up as shown.

Attackers have to get the ball to the circle edge and then in to the GS

Footwork

One A starts with the ball. She passes to her partner who has made a move to get past a defender.
First A then moves, taking on the other defender to receive the ball back from her partner, a 1-2 passing pattern.
A then passes to another A at the front of the opposite line to where she started.
Defenders mark tightly.
Working As line up at the back of the opposite line to where they started.
New As repeat.
