Netball: Circle Movement

*AUDIO DESCRIPTION ON*

Delivering the ball midcourt through to the circle edge/shooters

Set up: 

Half court, two balls, 5+ players

1 player standing on base line, another player with the ball standing around the third line. 

Description:

Note: The video shows the drill being played out with 2 groups of players, you could just focus on one group i.e. 1 line, 1 V driver. The description is based on one group. 

Player on base line near shooting post, V drives towards court edge and receives a pass from the player in the line with the ball. 

Player who passes the ball drives directly to the circle edge in a straight line and receives a pass from the player who has driven out on the V. 

Player who had initially drove out now drives into a position under the hoop to receive a pass from their player and put a shot up. 

Focus on shot techniques (as shown in video).

Player take a shot from the spot and can not progress to the next one until shot is successful.

Each time you miss a shot start at the beginning again.

Shooter sprints out to circle edge and, on return, receives a pass.
Shooter must balance, shoot, rebound then return ball to player 1. She continues until 5 goals have been scored - running to a different cone each time, then swap with the feeder. Vary the place at which the feeder stands.
Then introduce a defender.

• 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
