Two lines per goal. Both lines at a goal make up one team. Each drill set has 2 minutes to cross as many balls into the target area as possible. After each cross, the player shags her own pass and joins the opposite line. Teams score 1 point for crosses on the ground, and 2 (or 3!) points for crosses in the air. Losing team does squats or burpees.
The wall passers are optional for this drill. Remember, only half of the drill is shown in this diagram. Two areas would be needed to compete, one areas total vs. the other area.
