Netball: Through court movement

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

Debbie

DESCRIPTION

Set up: 7+ players, one ball, full court.

Players set up in loosely positioned areas.

Ball starts down one end i.e. with the shooter and players work the ball through the full court.

COACHING POINTS

You can add in progressions such as defence in seperate thirds, a limit on the amount of passes players do, backline reset passes.

You should encourage players to work on court balance between team mates.

You could add in a time limit.

Encourge passing and then moving so players are dynamic.

OFTEN USED WITH...

Beat the defender:

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

4 cones are set up in a zig zag formation down the length of a third space towards a wall.
The ball is placed on the furthest away cone.
A defending player stands in the middle of the cones, they are to ‘pick up’ the attacker when they drive out.
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.
The attacker passes the ball to the wall and gets the rebound.

Movement

Backline Stack:

WD and GD will start in a stacked position, one behind the other with the WD in front
The C will start just inside the centre third to allow the WD and GD space
Both players will split and go in opposite directions to make an offer for the ball
The WD is likely to receive the ball
The GD will then change direction and drive down court to offer for the next ball from the WD
The C will receive the ball from the GD - they must ensure they time their movement correctly

Set Plays

Circle Edge Set-Up:

WD will set up ball side on the circle edge
GD will set up away from the WD to give them space and to balance the court - they should try to be ball side also
C will start back just inside the centre third, this will allow the WD and GD space
The GK will pass the ball to the WD (holding ball side)
The GD will then drive to receive the second ball from the WD
C will then make a move to receive the ball from the GD

Set Plays

Backline Pass Progression:

5+ players, 1 ball, half court space.

1. One player sets up near baseline as the feeder with the ball.

2. All other players (workers) set up near third line behinf eachother.

3. Workers drive forward and receive a pass from the feeder, they pass back, peel to the right and join the back of the line.

Progression 1: Players alternate the side they peel out to.

Progression 2: Working players peel out as they were but then cut back into the midline to receive another pass. Worker passes back to the feeder.

Progression 3: Two workers drive out together. One will get a pass from the feeder. They will then peel out and drive towards the midline to recieve a long pass.

Progression 4: As with progression 3 but with one defender in the mix.

Progression 5: Backline pass. One worker to fake a drive. Another to pop out to recive a pass from feeder at backline. Another worker to drive foward and recieve pass to the finish with the first fake driver recieving a pass over the halfway line.
