ANZ futureFERNS Year 1&2:


Our Year 1&2 games play on Thursday afternoons.

We will start at 3.45pm to allow time for some travelling teams to get to GNC.

All teams will meet for a NetballSmart Warm Up on Ct2 (in front of the pavilion).


FutureFERNS -

Players are not to be specialised into positions at this level, and should be rotating positions so they learn skills for, and experience them all.


Reminders for all Players:

  • Players fingernails need to be short, and all jewellery removed (exception taped medic alert bracelet)
  • No scores are taken.
  • KIA PAI – Keep it Positive and have fun!


This week’s skill focus is PIVOTING.

Coaching Points:

*Weight is on the ball of the first grounded foot

*Other foot is lifted and re-grounded to maintain balance and assist the pivot

*Keep the body upright with head up and knees bent throughout

*Hold ball close to body when pivoting

*Pivot away from the defender in a forward movement
