Hi Claire, with my rep team I get them playing a half court game. Every now and then I blow my whistle and they all have to stand still. I get them to look at...

How many other coaches use set plays? I know I don't tend to - but I do like to have some strategies. One I always like is the peel and drive - which can be...
I have a basic rule during training of 'if you touch it, you have to get it' - so in EVERY drill, they have to chase down the ball (and it becomes worth their...

Hi, this is Joseph in Botswana. I was playing against a team which mainly defended by blocking my GA. Their GD and WD blocked her, and when my C had the ball, ...
I have a drill that is fun and uses dodging and team passing, moving etc that I have found good for all ages. 2 teams in a third of the court. Smaller the...

Hi Joseph, Did it work? You could try centre pass to GD or WD, then to WA who has dropped back to goal third, then to either C on opposite side of circle from...

Hi Deanna. This doesn't answer your question but something interesting I learned at a course recently. When the GK is doing a throw-in (or any penalty, etc....
One trick is to have your C/WA set up a 'screen' for your GA to go around. And as the others have said - she can start in the circle if she wants, or even use...
Hi Joseph, If you GA is always coming out for the centre pass you could drop her back and the pass could go to WA, WD or GD. Over here the Shooters can go out...
Just to clarify - the shooters can leave the court, and the defence are not allowed to defend them OFF court (they can follow them though) - however, they do...

Hi All, first of all you should teach your players to always when attacking the ball to look at the court as 3 lanes all players should be set up on court as...
Hi , We do a similar set up its called 3 over off an opposition centre pass very affective cutting out your ga and wa and forcing the pass to go to the gd or...
Face guarding is when they're looking straight at the player - face to face. A lot of defence think this is a great way to keep up with the person they are...

Why don't you have a set play to bring the ball down the court where they are required to pass to her. ________________________________ From:...

Hi Cheryl. I had a similar problem last year, with 15 year olds. I made one of the stronger (and more vocal) players the permanent team captain, rather than ...
I also have a player like that, what I do is have a different captain each week and the parent of that girl must score, just keeps it fair. I always remind my...
