Playing a player short - what position to drop?   Message List

Re: [netballcoaching] Playing a player short - what position to drop?

I usually drop WA position if I have to play short.

You can use the WD/C/GA/GS to get the ball down to and into your circle, but
leaving an unmarked player on the Opposition's circle can cost you.
Especially against shooters that like to re-offer or use the triangle to
better the shooting position. Your attackers just have to be aware that the
feed into the circle will have to be to a shooters favoured shooting
position, as the option to re-offer or use the triangle probably won't be
availabe as their C will/should have two markers on her.

I definitely would start playing without the WA  (that's what happened when I was a jnr anytime we were short).  And coaching, I always start off without the...
