Session 4 Channels

Aim: To encourage players to use the width and length of the Netball court to open up spaces for through court attacking play
Set Up
9-12 players, Whole Netball court, Cones or chalk, balls, bibs
How to Play
• Using cones or chalk divide the court lengthways into 3 channels.
• Place 3 defenders on court - one in each lane.
• One attacker is positioned in the attacking goal third and the remaining players are lined up in three rows in the other goal third.
• The attackers move down the ‘motorway’ passing between each other but must not receive the ball in the ‘lane’ they are running in. They may pass to someone in their lane but then must quickly fill the free lane.
• The attackers look to keep all lanes balanced and can pass to the attacker in the attacking goal third if, and when they are available and then work that player into the circle to shoot
