Well if you want be a sharp shooter in Netball you need some improvement.

Step 1

You can shoot from anywhere inside the goal circle.

But having a good view of the ring and a balanced position is important.

Stand with your feet shoulder width apart and keep your body straight.

Try and stand as tall as the goalpost!

Balance the ball on the finger tips of one hand and use your other hand to steady it.

Get steady quickly - remember shooters only have three seconds to take a shot!

Step 2

The power for your shot comes from the floor.

So you need to bend your knees as if you are about to jump into the air.

It might sound silly - but let the energy flow from your feet through to your hands.

This should help you concentrate and stay focused on the ring.

Keep your back straight and your head up.

As you prepare to release the ball, drop your hands back behind your head.

This is the most accurate way to control the direction of the ball.

So try and learn this technique rather than starting your shot with the ball held out in front of you.

Step 3

You need to get your aim right before taking the shot.

Try and focus on a point at the back rather than the front of the ring.

This is because the shot is usually short so if you aim for the back it should still fall in!

Try and let the ball go at the same time as you straighten your legs.

Move your arms as little as possible when you release the ball but add spin by flicking your wrists.

You should end your shot standing on tiptoes with your arms following through towards the ring.

But if the ball doesn't go through the net - don't just stand there - get ready for the rebound!

And that's how you an be a sharp shooter!

Basically everyone has places they can't pass and you throw the ball down to the end that your goal shotters are and they put the ball throw the ring to score one point.
