Netball: 1-2 Taking on two defenders

Improve your attacking players' preliminary moves - to help them outwit their marker and get free to receive the pass

Develop your players understanding the importance of giving the right pass and giving a first time ball.

Great passes aren't made just the by ball carrier, the movement of the fellow attackers is vital to giving the ball carrier options to penetrate space. Learn how to make effective movements in this session.

Make the most of every center pass by encouraging your players to drive onto the ball and make a solid connection with the passer.

1. Double cut back:

WA runs one way, stops abruptly and changes direction before again changing direction for a second time to go and meet the pass.

2. Cut back:

WA runs one way, stops quickly - changes direction and runs into space to meet the pass.

3. Double bluff:

WA runs and stops, making it look as though they are going to cut back before continuing their run in the direction they were already running to meet the pass.

The challenge in this game is for the attacking players to use the extra player to help them score.

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

Players take it in turns to run through the defender's areas as pairs. The player without the ball leads into the space. Working together they should try to pass and move, maintaining possession of the ball, from one side to the other.

If players successfully pass and support each other to the other side without losing the ball they pass the ball to the next pair and then join the back of the queue.

If the ball is intercepted though the pair who lost the ball become the defenders and the original defenders take the runner's place at the back of the queue.
