Netball: Around the 3ft mark

I found this service to be excellent and it was of great help when...
Jo, Netball Coach

DESCRIPTION

This helps your players pass around the defender's 3ft mark

Set up a small triangle (gaps of ~2m) of attackers with one defender in the middle.

Attacker's pass to each other around the defender's 3ft mark

Attackers catch and hold the ball for 2 seconds to give the defender time to get into position.

Work for 12 reps each.

COACHING POINTS

  • Get the attackers using different passes to avoid interception (over/under)
  • Attackers can use a fake step around to move the defender out of position
