Activate - essential attacking skills for netball

This course will examine the qualities of an attacking player and will explore the methods a player can utilise to get free. The workshop will apply the Games for Understanding approach and review how a meaningful games experience can be embedded in the coaching session.  Coaches will be introduced to the principles of attacking play and will observe and analyse performance in relation to these in the workshop.  The coach will be equipped with the skills to plan practices which are in a games context and will recognise the value of placing conditions on games to improve the practice.  The workshop will address set ups, first and second phase options in a range of game situations.  The cues an attacker should attend and respond to will be a feature of the workshop with a particular emphasis on the centre pass.
