🏐 Summer Skill Spotlight – Week 3 ✨ Solo Drill: Landing practise. If you’re feeling fit and well, here’s our third summer skill. You just need a bouncy ball and a wall.

🔍 Why it matters: Good landing technique keeps you balanced and helps prevent injuries.

📝 How to do it:
• Face a wall and throw the ball above your head.
• As it rebounds, jump upwards to catch it and land on two feet, slightly wider than hip width. 🔤Variations: (a) Land on one foot instead of two; (b) Catch the ball, turn in the air, and land facing a new direction.
⚠️Always bend your knee(s) when you land.

💬 Please tell us how you get on 😊.

🏐 Summer Solo Skill Spotlight – Week 2 ✨ Solo Drill: Agility & Fast Feet!
💪🏻If you are feeling physically fit and well, here’s our second solo drill for us to try over the summer break before the new term begins.
🔍 Why this drill? Agility and fast feet make you quicker on court; helping with quick direction changes, and controlled stops.
⚽🔺All you need is a ball that bounces, a safe driveway or patio, and a marker like a cone or other stable object.

📝 How to do it (also see pictures below):
• Place your cone or marker 1–2 metres to the right side of you. • Drop the ball from chest height. • Stay on your toes, side step or side skip to touch the cone, then return to catch the ball. • Try to get back before the ball bounces too many times.

💡Variations: • Move the cone further away. • Repeat the drill with the cone on your left side.

💬 Tell us how you get on 😀.

As promised, something we can easily practise at home during the summer break 💪🏻!

🏐 Summer Solo Skills Spotlight – Week 1: Proprioception and core stability.
🔍 Why it matters: Balance and coordination improvements during netball landing and take-off.

📝 How to do it:
Step 1: Stand on one leg and circle the ball around your waist.
Step 2: Stay on one leg and move the ball around the front of your raised, bent knee.
Step 3: Switch legs and repeat the sequence.
Tip: If balancing is difficult, work for short intervals and build up gradually.

📸 See with Gilbert on YouTube; this drill is demonstrated in the first part of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxfQDty53g8 💪
