Split the group into 2 groups. Each group will create 2 lines (one with a ball one without). at opposite ends in opposite corners of the court. one group will do chest passes while shuffling down the court. The other group will do 1 on 1 where player with the ball will be encouraged to weave down the court and the defender will be encouraged to shuffle down the court keeping the player with the ball in front of them.
