Set up 4 lines of players down a third. 2 lines at each end, facing each other, 1, 2, 3, 4
A1 passes to A2, and runs in front of A2 to receive the ball back.
A2 Passes to A1 and runs to in front of where A1 was.
A1 passes to A3 and the same happens at the other side. Players join the end of the lines at the other side.
A1 has the option of passing again to A2, once they have made their run, who would then pass to A4.
A2 catches, looks forward and waits til A1 is in position.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
