There is no LEGAL limit to the length of the pass. you just cant throw over a third without someone touching it.

The answer I think you're looking for is 25.4m. From the corner of one third to the diagonally oposite corner of the adjacent third.

Phil is exactly right. This question was posed to a number of young players as part of continual efforts to get players thinking about their netball. Many players answered with 20 meters, because they were thinking inside the box, and forgot about diagonal passes. Quite a few did get the right answer, possibly with some parental help on Pythagoras.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
