Netball: Run through - Two balls passing circuit

I am currently coaching a senior college team and I have found Sportplan...

Kiri, Coach

DESCRIPTION

Divide your players into two equal lines, with one ball with the first player. Two feeders stand in the middle on either side of the two lines.

The first player passes to the feeder on their left and then runs out to receive the return pass. They catch the ball and then pass to the next player in the opposite line before joining the back of that line.

Drill continues.

COACHING POINTS

All players need to be aware of each other and keep to the right side.

Feeders need to pass ahead of the lead runners who should remember to:

Run, Receive, Stop, Balance and Pass

OFTEN USED WITH...

Run, receive and pass:

Split the group into 3s.

1 Ball per group.

Blue 1 runs between white 1 and 2 to receive the ball. They jump, land and turn and then feed on to white 2.
After 10 passes rotate.
Repeat, receiving on the other side.
Progression
Blue 1 turns in the air before landing.

Passing

The Star:

This practice encourages concentration and awareness.

3 players (A, B and C) stand on the cones making the top three points of a star (they are static during the practice), the fourth point in made up of a queue of players in pairs.

The first pair start. Players 1 passes the ball out to player A and follows their pass, running around them.

Player 2 runs staright forward and receives the pass from player A in the centre of the star.

Player 2 then passes out to player B and follows their pass running around them.

Meanwhile player 1 has run back into the centre to recieve from player B.

Player 1 then passes it out to player C and follows their pass around them.

Player 2 runs in to receive the pass from player C in the centre

Player 2 then passes the ball out to player 1 and player 1 passes it to the next pair.

They both then join the back of the line.

Rotate the static players as and when.

Passing

Set play - Attacking Centre:

WA starts wide drawing the WD with her. GA also starts wide.

The GA drives should time their run in court to receive the ball.

The WA drives in court to receive the pass from the C who then runs up court to receive the return pass.

The C then catches the ball and plays to the GA who has made the run to the other side to lose their marker and then passes to the GS to complete the move.

C - WA - C - GA - GS

Movement

Pivot and Pass:

Split your players into groups of 4 with one ball. Each group forms 2 lines.

The front person from the 1st line (red player) runs out to receive ball from the blue player at the front of the other line.
After receiving the ball they pivot and throw to the next person in their line.
Players then sprint to rejoin the back of their line.
Repeat

Try to get this activity to be free flowing and continuous
