  • (A) runs their line from (1 to 2), receiving the pass from coach on (2)
  • When catching , (A) must land with good footwork so they can continue speedy delivery.
  • (B) times their lead so (A) has time to steady and pass
    (A) mustn't wait for (B) to arrive at (2) due to a slow lead
    (B) mustn't lead too early and be caught waiting flat-footed for (A)
    After passing, players return to (1)
  • The pattern continues in this fashion, with all players running from (1) and receiving at (2) from the previous player in quick succession.
  • Once the final player is reached, briefly pause until all players have returned to (1). Now work back the other way.
