Netball: Intercepting - angles

I found this service to be excellent and it was of great help when...

Jo, Netball Coach

DESCRIPTION

Players 2 and 3 stand just in front of a line. White 1 stands in the middle but just behind the line, and is ready to move, on her toes. The feeder feeds the ball to one of the posts and the worker must move forward to intercept the pass before returning to her start position.

COACHING POINTS

The worker must drive forward to take the ball in front of the post and at an angle

make sure the defender is prepared before the next pass is made

Interception - group activity:

Red 2 has the ball and red 1 starts in the opposite corner

Blue 1 runs forward and Red 2 passes a diagonal pass to Blue 1

Red 1 moves on a diagonal to intercept the pass

Following the interception red 1 feeds a straight pass onto Blue 2

Red 2 then runs straight to receive a diagonal pass from Blue 2 and Blue 1 moves across to intercept this pass.

Interception

Intercepting - group:

Split the group into minimum of 3 people with one ball per group.

Player 2 runs to the side to receive ball from player 1.

They then turn and feed the ball to player 3 (the next player waiting in line).

Player 3 feeds the ball back to player 1 as player 2 moves quickly through to try and intercept the pass.

Interception

King Ball:

Each team has a King (player) standing on their bench.

The aim of the game is to get all your team's players (Kings) onto their bench.

To become a King, the players on the same team must successfully pass the ball between themselves to their existing Kings, abiding by the rules of netball, and the king must catch the ball without falling off the bench!

Small games

Intercepting from behind:

Groups of three or fours one ball.
2 feeders and 2 defenders. feeders stand 4 to 6 metres apart defenders position themselves beside the feeders.
Player 1 and 2 pass the ball back and forth. White 1 must move to intercept the pass.
Progression:- Defence must move round feeders so eventually she is starting from behind her.
