This session looks at the attacking principle of maintaining possession of the ball, by using power and accuracy when passing. By getting your players to pass powerfully and accurately, they’ll be ensuring that the ball will reach the correct destination, putting them on the front foot!
It’s important that your players put plenty of power and accuracy behind their pass; a weak and inaccurate pass would be easily intercepted by the opposition and put them on the attack instead of your side. With this session, we’ll get your players thinking about where they’re passing, making a quick but effective decision and becoming aware of their surroundings. We also look at turning in the air to receive the ball, helping your players lose their defender and create space, increasing the number of opportunities on goal!
What’s in the Session?
Start off with a warm up to get your players fully prepared and focused for the session ahead. Get working on their accuracy and power behind their passing straight from the off, working on the individual techniques of passes such as the chest, bounce and shoulder passes.
Your players need to work together and we go through the session, your players need to communicate with one another in a number of drills to deliver each pass correctly. Finish off with a 7 v 7 conditioned game, with two balls involved, ready to test what your players have learnt and improved on during the session!
Stop your passes being intercepted in your matches - get your players passing with power and accuracy with this session today!

Split circle defence is the system the top three NSL teams have built their identity around in 2026. The Goal Keeper and Goal Defence divide the circle into zones, switch in synchrony, and make every passing option look risky. Here is how to coach it.
Most netball shooters know how to shoot. The difference at the top is who can shoot when it counts. A structured 10-minute pre-game mental routine is the most under-used performance tool in club netball - and it is the simplest to teach.
The best Goal Defences in the 2026 NSL season are intercepting more than ever. The reason is not raw athleticism. It is a deliberate shift from chasing the attacker to driving into the flight path of the ball. Here is how to coach it.
