Netball: Midcourt driving - peel off

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON*

Delivering the ball midcourt through to the circle edge/shooters

Set up: 

Half court, two balls, 5+ players

1 player standing on base line, another player with the ball standing around the third line. 

Description:

Note: The video shows the drill being played out with 2 groups of players, you could just focus on one group i.e. 1 line, 1 V driver. The description is based on one group. 

Player on base line near shooting post, V drives towards court edge and receives a pass from the player in the line with the ball. 

Player who passes the ball drives directly to the circle edge in a straight line and receives a pass from the player who has driven out on the V. 

Player who had initially drove out now drives into a position under the hoop to receive a pass from their player and put a shot up. 

Set up: A wall, one third space, one ball, 4+ cones, 2 players.

1. 4 cones are set up in a zig zag formation down the length of a third space towards a wall.
2. The ball is placed on the furthest away cone. 
3. A defending player stands in the middle of the cones, they are to ‘pick up’ the attacker when they drive out.
4. The attacker, drives out towards the first cone and zig zags towards all cones to move past the defender and get the ball off the cone.
5. The attacker passes the ball to the wall and gets the rebound. 

Partners, 1/2 court space, 3 cones

1. Worker side steps between two cones, then presents body in a strong front on postion ("skinny skinny fat").

2. Bring in 1 defender.

3. Bring in 2 defenders.

The starting player passes the ball to the player moving towards the ball from the opposite group.

The receiving player who catches the ball should land on 1 foot, then land on their 2nd foot and pivot onto their 1st landing foot to pass the ball back the player on the side where they started.

Exercise reverses in the other direction.
