Kabadi with a 3v1. Tennis ball must be played to a side without a player present with them arriving into the space to receive the ball. This can be mixed between rolling the ball, under arm only and overhand only and a mixture of the three. The aim is to get the groups communicating and moving to space. If middle player struggles you can rotate players in based on time.
