Blue player starts with a self pass and runs at the defender with the option of then passing the ball to the deep player or taking the defender on themselves.

The defender is allowed to move to try and win the ball.

When the ball reaches the other side the practice reverses and continues in the other direction.

The player with ball has a free hit.

They should play a self pass before then trying to get the ball to either player.

The defender has to keep their distance from the free hitter and try to move so that they can intercept the pass. Players on the free hit should disguise the direction of their pass.
