Denying space PLUS Running at Pace!
This week we've got two top sessions for you to use with your players, packed with drills and new ideas for you to incorporate into your pre-match and training routine! Read on to learn more!
Denying Space - Channel, Shadow and Intercept!
The first of this week's sessions looks at improving defence throughout your entire team, working on channelling, shadowing and intercepting high balls!
Defending shouldn't be the sole responsibility of players inside the defensive third - the instant your team loses possession of the ball it should be all hands on deck as your team works as a unit to regain possession.
To improve your players' spatial awareness, in turn increasing the number of passing errors from the opposition, we start with an explosive running and catching drill. After your players have practised intercepting the high balls we then play two fun conditioned games - putting what they've learnt in this session into practice!
Netball Conditioning - Pacey Running Session
Speed and control are the key elements in this session! Being the fastest runner on the court is no good to anyone if you're not able to control your feet and stop abruptly where necessary!
To ensure your players are skilled speedsters this session works on fast feet, getting your players to accelerate quickly, move and speed and be able to quickly change direction - with easy to adjust drills, depending on the age and physical ability of your players.
SESSION OF THE WEEK: Denying space and Running at Pace sessions!
Another great feature of full membership.
I have thoroughly enjoyed using your site to help me with my coaching plans for my under 9's netball team.
