Netball- Movement

Skill learnt- Movement is very important in netball and we were taught our positions and where we were allowed to go on the pitch. When you know where you can and can't go, you then need to make sure you move in the correct positions for your team mates to pass to you, which is what we did.

Technique- When attacking you need to lose your marker so your team mates can pass to you. This requires movement and you need to make sure you do not give your marker a rest so you must be constantly moving into space to entice the pass. By feinting where you are running to you will take your marker off guard and this will give you a few seconds in which a pass can be made to you.

Tactic- If you have good movement, it means you will be able to give and recieve passes regularly and so you will be a key part of your team. Your team mates will always be able to rely on you and will always seek you out for a pass.

I was good at the movement because i can feint a run and throw my marker off me. It is much harder when you are defending though because you have to watch other players while you are marking a player which gives the player your marking opportunities to break freee.
