NETBALL

Warm Up:

- Suicide Runs: Running; Grapevine; Backwards- Knee Tag

Drill 1: Throwing Circle

Group gets in a circle and one person stands in the middle. One person must run between the gaps in the circle to receive and return the ball from the person in the middle. Passes will include bounce passes, chest passes and shoulder passes.

Drill 2: Netball Tag

Two people are allocated bibs and chosen to be the ‘taggers’ while the rest of the group must try to avoid being ‘tagged’. People without bibs are only allowed to move when the ball is in the air. Taggers must try to tag the opposition with the ball in order to recruit them to the tagging team. The person holding the ball is not allowed to move with the ball.

Drill 3: Shooting Drill

Person A runs into the circle and Person B throws it to them close to the ring. Person A must then try to shoot the ball into the hoop. Person A becomes Person B; Person B goes to back of the line. Progression: Add a defender.
