Netball: Split Drive Onto Ball

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. 

Set up: one third space, one ball between two, cones (one between two).

One partner to be standing on the third line with the ball facing the baseline.

Other partner starts on the baseline, drives out to cone (about halfway down the third), turns and drives back to the baseline. Turns again and accelerates to partner who is holding the ball. 

Play should recieve pass before the cone. 

4 posts, 2 lines of players (workers), 1 ball, 1/3 space.

Ball to start with one of the workers who passes the ball to either the post on the left or right.

Player follows the pass and always drives back to the middle.

Worker number 2 drives to recieve pass from the first post in the middle and passes off to any post, and follows pass.

Post passes back to the other worker who will recieve the ball in the middle.

This is repeated until all posts have been passed to.

• The WA and GA will start in a staggered position, with one player (WA in this example) on the line and the other (GA) positioned off the line
• Both the WA and GA will offer for the centre pass
• WA will receives the ball from the C
• GA recognises that they did not receive first ball and will clear out to get down court into the circle
• Once the C has passed the ball to the WA they will then drive deep down court to receive the second phase ball from back from the WA
• The GS will hold their space until the C has received the ball and is ready to pass in - they will then drive onto the ball, driving towards the edge of the circle to leave space for the GA
• The GA should be able to receive the ball from the GS under the post
