During my class session, few of my students are poor in lob passing. Their technique of passing is wrong. How can I improve their lob passing skill, with an interesting games approach?
Hi Kalai,
Here on Sportplan, we have a number of drills to help you with this. One is this one hand lob passing drill here, which will improve your team`s technique. This will encourage them more to flick their wrist in the movement of a lob pass, and also help pass accurately.
For more ideas, search our Netball drills.
Hope that helps!

the lob is a tough pass to get right. it should be high and leave the feeder on an angel to a point about 1m behind the receiver and then drop straight down. the receiver needs to be zoning/blocking their player in a side on position with their should pointing towards the space they want to catch the ball in. they should not move until the ball is directly above them and is dropping. their footwork should be a side shuffle (or in dance terms, a side chassey) and they should be reaching (jumping) to catch the ball in the space they were keeping free of their defence player. it is an almost impossible pass to intercept or defend if done correctly. hope that helps.

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.
