I make goals when I’m training for netball and when I’m playing it too.

I do make sure I build reasonable goals and make sure I don’t push myself to hard otherwise I will get hurt. A way to make sure I don’t go overboard when I’m setting goals is SMART. This is a good acronym to use, it helps me build proper goals like more than five intercepts in a game and stay on track.
I would include goals in a game of netball because it’s so effective. They are effective in a way that when you build a goal, you focus on that specific goal and not the game so you have a 99% chance of achieving it and improving the game as well. Goals are terrific to use and using them in a game of netball will enhance my performance increasingly. Having goals in games always helps me do better. For example; when I’m captain, I always have a goal for the team and for me. To get over 15 goals by the end of the game for the team and anything I need to work on for
