Netball: holding your defence

Work on your team?s attacking skills and protect the space created with this session

Get your team to dominate in the circle with this attacking session, helping them to maximise and score their chances on goal

Develop your team?s shooting skills, by improving their technique and movement, with this attacking session!

Having the shooters to put the points on the board is vital. Get your players in the attacking circle full of confidence with this shooting session.

One player, the feeder, starts on the edge of the circle. The other player, the worker (number 1 in the diagram) runs around one of the cones set out on the edge of the shooting circle, then drives back into the circle to receive the ball before making the shot.

Shooter collects the successful shot or rebound, passes back out to the feeder and repeats with an alternative cone.

1. White player 1 throws to Blue player 1, then runs quickly into circle and receives ball back.
   
   
2. White player 1 then shoots, collects the ball, and passes to Red player 1, before joining the back of the Red player's line.
   
   
3. Red player 1 does the same from the other side and the drill continues.

Blue number 1 dummies a shot and passes the ball to number 2.

Number 1 runs across towards the goal, to receive the return pass and shoots.

The two attackers become next two defenders

Blue player 1 dodges to receive from blue 2. The player inside the circle then returns the pass and dodges again.

Before being allowed to make the shot the circle player must receive 5 passes.

After 5 passes the defender takes the rebound, moves out of the circle and becomes the feeder so all 3 players rotate.
