A feeder and attacker start on a third line, about 5m apart. A defender starts off to the side and behind the attacker.
The feeder does a chest pass to the attacker which the defender will attempt to intercept. The feeder runs into the Centre third and the defender (or attacker if the defender missed the intercept) passes to the feeder.
The attacker then runs to the edge of the circle to receive a ball from the feeder. The defender tracks the attacker back and again goes for the intercept.
