Set up 5 equal groups of players, one group on each sideline and 3 in the middle. Have several balls with both groups of sideline players.

Player 1 starts the drill with a pass to player 2. Player 2 runs out to meet the pass and then passes it on to player 3 who passes to player 4 who finishes with a shot on goal.

Immediately after passing though player 1 must chase down their own pass, making sure they're in a position to block the shot when blue 4 is in possession.

Players in the middle rejoin the back of their own lines after receiving the pass/shooting.

Sideline players join the back of the line on the opposite side of the court after blocking the shot.

Same as in Back and Forth 1 player 1 starts the drill from the right wing and passes to player 2. Player 2 then passes to player 3 who passes to player 4.

After they've passed the ball player 2 moves forward, in behind the defence to the right wing position.

To finish the move player 4 passes the ball back to player 3 who then feeds the ball to the white player (pivot player) who then turns and shoots at goal.

Player 1 starts this drill from the right wing and passes to player 2. Player 2 then passes to player 3 who passes to player 4.

After they've passed the ball player 2 moves forward, in behind the defence to the right wing position and waits to receive the return pass from player 3 (who was passed to by player 4).

To finish the move player 2 has a shot on goal.

During this passing process the two defenders press out to put pressure on the pass and player 1 runs across the court to set a screen between the defender and the attackers.
