Netball Australia Long Term Athlete Development Plan

The Netball Australia Long Term Athlete Development (LTAD) plan provides a platform on which to guide

good practice with regard to the development of technical, tactical and sport specific competencies. The

plan provides guidelines for implementing training and competition programs, as care should be taken

that the developmental athlete does not under-train and over compete. The philosophy supporting the

plan is based on Dr. Istvan Balyi’s Long Term Athlete Development Model.

Netball is a late specialisation sport. That is it

requires a more generalised approach to early

training with the emphasis of training being

focused on the development of general,

fundamental motor and technical/tactical skills.

Participants should progress when they are

developmentally ready and not when they reach

a certain age.

The Long Term Athlete Development Plan is

divided into the following stages:

Foundation Stage (Developing Athletes –

NetSetGO)

This stage is well structured and emphasises the

learning of the fundamental movement skills

through a positive and fun approach to the

athletes. Exposure to many sports with physical

capacities developed through playing a variety of

games. Physical activity 5-6 times per week with

session times 30-60 minutes.

Development Stage (Learning to Train –

Developing Athletes, chronological age 11-13

years)

This stage concentrates on a range of

fundamental sport skills including throwing,

catching, jumping, running and basic game

formats that encourage fun, skill development

and decision making. They will perform physical

activity 5-6 times a week, with about 50% of time

spent playing other sports to assist in developing

a broad base of physical competencies.

Intermediate Stage (Training to Train –

chronological age 14+)

This stage also includes older athletes with no

training background. Emphasises the building of

fitness and specific sports skills and includes

physical preparation training, sport specific skill

development including perceptual skills, reading

the game, tactical introduction and decision

making. The emphasis is on training as opposed

to competing. 75% training to 25% competition

ratio is recommended. They may participate in

training 5-8 times per week. Athletes who miss

this stage may never reach their full potential

regardless of remedial programs.

Advanced Stage (Training to Compete)

This stage includes athletes with a training

background and incorporate high intensity

individual and sport specific training which aims

to refine the athlete’s skills for a specific event

and/or position and application to a competition

situation. 50:50 ratio of training to competition

is recommended. Of the training portion 50% is

the development of technical and tactical

capabilities as well as fitness. 50% is competition

specific training. Training could be up to 9 times

per week.

Elite Stage (Training to Win)

Elite athletes are trained to peak for major

competition. Training is high intensity and high

volume. Well periodised models are introduced

to program recovery. Emphasis is placed on the

competition period. Training could be up to 10

times per week.

Retainment/Retaining Stage

Athletes retire from competition completely and

possibly move into sport related areas such as

coaching, media and administration.
