Indoor Hockey

Forward rotation pass down left board:

Have lots of balls.

Every time the ball is passed into the midfield while the forwards finish the move, the back two can take the next ball and start passing between themselves until the rotating forwards are ready to receive the next ball.

Players not just running around in a circle, but looking to receive the ball.
