Often young netball players throw the ball at the hoop which can result in a lot of rebounded shots. However, by using the metaphor "Make a Rainbow" you can help your players visualise the correct shooting form to get the ball up and over - helping them to become a top goal shooter.
What's in the Session?Part 1:
To get your players shooting with loop we kick things off with three rainbow pattern warm ups, teaching your players to focus on getting height on their shots and shooting with a flick of the wrist.
Part 2:
After this we up the tempo and work on Speed Footwork and Shooting in a series of driving drills, designed to get your players sprinting into the circle, using 1-2 footwork and shooting at the goal hoop with accuracy. We then finish this goal scoring session with a conditioned game to see which team can make the most shots in the allotted time!
Give this plan a try tonight and improve your young netballer's shooting.

July is the month that decides your season. Netball is not a steady jog - it is a string of short, sharp, repeated sprints with barely any recovery. Here is how to build a pre-season engine that still has legs in the final quarter.
The double play - pass, drive, receive it straight back - is the quickest way to slice through a settled defence. Elite coaches like West Coast Fever's Dan Ryan have made it a signature. Here is how to build the give-and-go into your team's attack.
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.
