Five players from the attacking team position themselves around the goal area line so that they stretch the defenders. Each of them should be man-marked from a distance by the five white players.
The attacking blue players pass the ball in the following order:
Blue1 - Blue2 - Blue3 - Blue4.
After passing the ball blue1 runs to the center and sets a screen in front of Blue6.
Blue4 now has a decision to make. They can:
- Take the shot themself
- Pass to Blue1
- Pass to Blue6
- Pass to Blue5
From this point the drill is live.
