Recreational

This program is as a complete warm up for recreational netballers (14 years+).

There are four main components with a variety of exercises included in each section.

Players don’t need to perform every exercise each time. Multiple choices are given to provide variety, prevent boredom and enhance skill acquisition.

The KNEE Program needs to be completed at least twice a week for maximum effectiveness and must be continued for the effects to be maintained. It must also be done with correct technique to ensure risky movements are eliminated rather than reinforced.

Make sure all players are familiar and proficient in the key principles before introducing the warm up.
