Full court, 14 players, 1 umpire, 2 sets of bibs, 2 hoops, 8 cones.
A normal game situation is set up.
4 cones are set up down each sideline.
Players are to run around a cone, on the sideline, once they have passed the ball to a player.
Once they have run around the cone then they can come back into play.
This is a good drill for players to learn to pass then move, instead of passing and staying stationary and not being an option.
This drill is also great for allowing more space on court and offering other options. Players learn to drive out and back in as if they were getting away from a player and not being a stationary option.
