agree, games, games, games. The aim
is to ensure they have so much fun they come back next year. NO emphasis on competition or even on
achievement.

Subject: RE: [netballcoaching] Hi
I'm new!!
I would suggest getting some information on netta netball skills
and drills... but I had thought that children had to be AT LEAST 5 years old to
play any sort of netball. I got the impression that this was something
that was legislated..
For the younger age groups it's just basic co-ordination
skills. Don't expect them to play a game - catching the ball will be a
big enough challenge!
Some simple things are to get them to run to a spot and land on it
with one foot - then incorporate a pivot. Have spots all over the place -
so they do a circuit of pivots.
Perhaps for the really young ones use a modified ball (one that
won't hurt them when it hits their face). I think those rubber ones with
the lumps are supposed to be pretty good. Simple things like bouncing the
ball once and catching, throwing in the air then catching. Rolling the ball up
one side of their body.
Hope this helps... but I'm pretty sure getting some Netta
information will be invaluable!
