- Midfielder passes the ball into player in a wide position who uses the pace of the pass to deflect the ball into an attacker making a run in the circle.
- Attacker receiving the ball in the circle, should shape their run to create space where the ball is going to be played into.
- Attacker should then look to put a ball across the goal.

- Wide player should assume a low paosition with their stick parallel to the floor.
- Attacking players first movement in the circle should be towards the ball or away from the space to pull the defender away.
