Performing a chest pass in netball

A chest pass is a very fast and flat pass. This enables a team to move quickly up a court in a precise and accurate fashion.

Stage one

  • Stand with feet shoulder width apart and on the balls of your feet, with back straight and knees slightly bent.
  • Place hands on the sides of the ball with the thumbs directly behind the ball and fingers comfortably spread.

Stage two

  • The ball should be held in front of the chest with the elbows tucked in.
  • Step in the direction of the pass, by extending their legs, back, and arms.
  • Push the ball from the chest with both arms (not from one shoulder).
  • Fingers are rotated behind the ball and the thumbs are turned down.

Stage three

  • The back of the hands face one another with the thumbs straight down.
  • Make sure the ball is released off the first and second fingers of both hands.
  • Follow through to finish up with the arms fully extended, fingers pointing at the target and thumbs pointing to the floor.
