Coaches vary in their attitude towards set plays because they're a fairly rigid way of playing. Some coaches like them and others don't - they're the Marmite of the netball world.
At Sportplan though we believe that set plays are a useful weapon for your players to have in their arsenal, teaching fluid and fast ball progressions. If after trying them out you find they're not for you and your team then no worries!
What's in the Session?
To get your side thinking quickly, we start with a running and fast hands warm up, before getting into some weaving and rolling exercises.
Once your players are thoroughly warmed up and ready we then start drilling and perfecting your team's attacking set plays before finishing with a full-court game - giving your players to opportunity to put their newly learned set-plays into practice!

The new season is the perfect moment to set the expectation that every junior player tries every bib. Here is why rotation builds better netballers, how to organise it fairly, and what to say when a player or parent wants "their" position.
Most club teams defend one-on-one and nothing else. A well-drilled zone gives you a second option, and against the right opponent it is the difference between chasing and controlling.
