Netball play templates
7 netball shapes, drawn on the pitch they belong on rather than sketched. Read the setup, then open it in the designer and move the players your team does differently.
Formations
Attacks
Centre pass overload right
Attack · 11 players
Wing attack and goal attack stand together on the right of the transverse line, with the goal shooter drifted left at the top of the circle. Two defenders crowded into one channel get in each other's way, and if they both stay right the empty left side is there for a re-cut.
Read the setup
Centre pass split lead
Attack · 11 players
Goal attack and wing attack start at opposite ends of the transverse line, so their defenders cannot help each other, and the wing defence sits in the middle of the defensive line as the safe back option. The centre has two first-pass targets as far apart as the court allows.

Attacking backline throw-in
Set piece · 11 players
The ball has gone out over the goal line we attack. Goal attack takes it beside the post, the goal shooter holds on the far side of the ring, wing attack waits on the edge of the circle and the centre comes high as the safe pass. Their goal defence has to stand 0.9 m off the thrower.

Defensive backline throw-in
Set piece · 11 players
A missed shot has gone out over the goal line we defend. The goal keeper throws in, the goal defence breaks for the side line, the wing defence offers on the edge of the circle and the centre holds the transverse line, so the ball can be worked out of the defensive third in two passes.

Sideline throw-in, attacking third
Set piece · 11 players
Wing attack throws in from the right side line in the attacking third. Goal attack leads hard towards the thrower, the goal shooter holds in the circle for the second ball, and the centre stays back on the transverse line so there is always a pass that cannot be intercepted.
