Getting physical is a workshop to help coaches understand and implement some key physical training ideas specifically for netball. This is a practical workshop that will take coaches through injury prevention strategies related to posture and the development of efficient movement patterns and strength development exercises to increase athletic performance on court.
 
Coaches will learn progressive exercises recommended for players progressing along the Excel pathway which have relevance to all levels of performance. Coaches will learn how to incorporate conditioning principles into netball training sessions through varying intensity levels and combining skill practice with fitness training. The workshop will also look at practical and easy methods of measuring player fitness and identify post training recovery methods.
