1 worker, 2 throwers with a ball each.
The worker (blue) alternatively receives passes from each thrower (red) and returns the ball to the thrower who passed them the ball.
The feeders then continue with to feed the ball, gradually increasing the speed of pass to test the worker!
Ensure the worker moves before they catch the ball, facing the passer and getting their hands up quickly to receive the ball and then step into the chest pass back to the players that passed to them.
Work at a high intensity for 1 minute and then rotate players in a clockwise direction.
