Passing and Shooting:

Players and cones set out as shown in animation.

The basketball will be passed from the line at the top to the player stood in the corner.

Once the player in the corner has the ball, the player in the top line will run around the cone and towards the side of the free-throw line where they will catch the ball and shoot.

The player that shoots the ball will get their own rebound and pass to the player in the corner. Who will then pass to the next player without a ball in the top line.

After the player rebounds, he becomes the next passer in the corner.
