Teams play to bring the ball behind the line.
Players are only allowed to pass the ball - absolutely no dribbling or no running with the ball allowed.
Defenders can win the ball back by blocking their opponents or intercepting the ball.
After having caught the ball players should move the ball towards their body to protect it.
Ensure players put their correct foot in front (left handers right foot, right handers left foot).
When throwing the ball players' hands should pass their head at ear height.
